Henry Yee Auction

I pretty much agree that the high-end, most desirable photos will continue to appreciate while the "middle of the pack" stuff may drop a little initially but could rebound over time.

Either way, there is some pretty nice stuff up for auction.

Even with baseball cards, buying "the only one in existence" usually means another one or two will be discovered within the next six months. I think that's one of Murphy's laws.

But if you follow auctions, collect and handle enough photos you'll know rarity and quality when you come across it. Just as an avid baseball card collector will know that the 1951 Bowman Mickey Mantle or the Old Judge King Kelly is the most valuable card in his neighbor's shoebox collection.
