!antiquememesroadshow@lemmy.world That escalated quickly.
Advertised here last evening, then exploded.
Pushed it right to my block list.
I think when you have a meme like that with such obvious provenance, it’s inevitably going to effect the value of other memes in the area. The whole point of this sub is to provide quality, interesting memes with real history and real pedigree. We need to work together to ensure that only the ripest hand-picked memes reach the meme-baskets of our fellow lemmites. X
Keep hearing the fediverse is full of mature, technical minded individuals. Glad to see memes are still the driving force of content.
Btw, I think this subscriber count only includes users from the same instance as viewer. You can for example use https://browse.feddit.de/, to see that !memes@lemmy.ml has almost 30k subscribers
You’ve got something pretty interesting for us don’t you? Let’s take a look. Wow, yes. I think we might have something here. You should be pretty excited about this!
So, I’ve been looking at old memes for most of my career and only come across a few like this.
There were many communities made to capture old memes but only a few were truly popular. The rarity of these communities also plays a huge part in how valuable the memes are to collectors.
I’ve seen a few others in better condition, but collector demand for this item is still very high.
Given the condition of community and the records kept about the origins, at auction: I’d expect this to go for about…
… three to four million doge.
