Features: "Metro Card Appreciation and Collection" takes the metro cards issued by the Shanghai Metro Company as its main theme, systematically describing and researching the development and investment of domestic metro card collecting. In recent years, an increasing number of collectors have joined the ranks of metro card enthusiasts. However, for each individual metro card, people are aware of its value and design but know little about its material, structure, and how to collect it. The author is an experienced collector who has accumulated over a decade of practical experience and collected domestic and international materials to compile this book. The book is richly illustrated, introducing various types of metro cards, such as commemorative cards, early cards, advertising cards, movie cards, sports cards, and more. Shanghai Metro cards, especially the commemorative magnetic cards, are a popular variety with high collection and investment value. The book concludes with a review of Shanghai Metro card tickets and teaches several methods for collecting them. To facilitate the collecting and investment of metro cards, "Metro Card Appreciation and Collection" written by Song Chen (pen name Baomu) has been published by the Cihai Press in full-color print, priced at 36 yuan. The book selects metro cards issued by the Shanghai Metro Company as its main theme, systematically describing and researching the development and investment of domestic metro cards, highlighting their unique modern significance. The entire book also includes images and data of metro cards issued by the Shanghai Metro Company from early test cards to July 2002, with detailed and rigorous content. As the first book in China to systematically elaborate on the collection and investment value of metro cards, it has been highly regarded by metro card collectors and investors, serving as an excellent reference book that combines appreciation and investment.
