This was my idea for our venture crew fundraiser. I heard this story a from another venture advisor that they sold BSA mouse pads on ebay and made enough money to travel to Denali and to Morocco.

On this idea – I bought one of these antique repro maps for my house and had it framed. It is really beautiful. I purchased it from Zazzle.com (off ebay), but it is sourced from the LOC. Probably lots of other distributors (type in your home town on ebay and see what comes up – hopkinton, ma has a bunch of them now).  The LOC has maps from all over the country.  You pay say $10 for the map, get a framing deal for say, $30 each (it has to be framed nicely), then sell for $125 around Christmas time. Good luck.
