I guess the big question going forward will be: Will the number of new/existing collectors be enough to carry the value as additional vintage product comes on the market through estates, etc...?

Desiderata
You are a child of the universe,
no less than the trees and the stars;
you have a right to be here.
And whether or not it is clear to you,
no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.
With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams,
it is still a beautiful world.
Strive to be happy.
