Everything you say is correct. But for most of us with an interest in such items (I'll speak for myself anyway), it is pretty simple. I love the movie, I love the story of the real Archibald Graham, I love the scarcity and aesthetics of the related items, and as a collector, would have gladly paid substantially more than I did for the postcard shown above. I'll save you the trouble of an eBay search, I paid $3,000. The prices such items command are simply supply and demand (like everything else), and there is a very low supply. If you don't understand the demand, I can get that. I don't understand the demand for lots of things in this hobby... At the end of the day, it is all just old cardboard, so do it because you enjoy it and buy what you like!
