Photograph collecting, and Type 1 photos in particular, is definitely a growing area of interest in the hobby. Yee being one of the most knowledgable and selective (in terms of what photos he includes in his auctions) sellers means he brings truly informative descriptions and quality subject matter, which naturally translate to higher prices for his photograph offerings. And, as I believe was a topic of discussion following his last auction, those higher prices spill over to other memorabilia categories he brings as well, though typically photos are his main area of emphasis. It's hard to pin a price on any piece ahead of time, but you can safely bet it will be "top of the market" price (or better) when the dust settles.
Just goes to show that knowledge of the subject matter, fully-informed descriptions, and clear, straightforward presentation of the material are all appreciated by bidders, and they will reward you for your efforts and consistency.
Oh, and literally being one of two who "wrote the book" on the subject helps too
