Revisited - Future Value of Gas Collectibles - Tue Oct 11 2016 04:18 PM
Hello all:
I just joined your site (this is my first post), although I have visited it for several years now as an unregistered guest (shame on me for lurking in the background for many years). First and foremost, thank you to the originators, moderators, and members of this site for providing information for people in this hobby. I am in my early 40s and have been collecting mainly signs/advertising since 2002. Although I don’t sell what I collect, there is an interesting thread from 2009 that I was hoping some members could revisit now that 7+ years have passed concerning the “future value” of our collectibles – here is the link:

I suppose my question to the membership is: Which comments in this thread have held true? Which have not? I am choosing this topic as I believe that I saw a posts regarding the last Morphy Auction in which there were certain opinions that the price for some globes were lower than they “should” have been. My apologies if this topic was revisited since 2009 or if it in any way duplicates any other posts in the recent past – there is a lot to digest on this site and I hope the topic is well received.
Thanks to all again for this site and the information presented here.
