Old is gold, it is always said. Since we claim to be a nation with a passion for films, if we go back to 1960 then most of our memory lanes find its solace in a golden era which was created by retro films. Then, what we could collect as a remembrance of films were film posters, photographs, songbooks, dialogue books, small cutouts of movies. Then, we used to call such collections as memorabilia that we know as merchandise today.
