If you look at past auction results at both Heritage and emovieposter almost all autographed posters and lobbies go for 2, 3 and sometimes 4 times the amount that an unsigned piece goes for. Perfect example is Heritage's Psycho 1 sheet signed by 3 cast members went for almost 10k. Todd Spoor Sent on the Sprint® Now Network from my BlackBerry®
