Bruce,
You are right that widespread slabbing of desirable movie paper would
attract "more" investor types and so, yes, it could happen here. But
let's be honest: It already has happened here, even without slabbing.
The incredible run up in the prices over the past 10 years of many of
the most desirable items -- Universal Horror and others... and most
significantly in Realart release -- has clearly been investor-driven.
Slabbing will just put the last few nails in the coffin.

timers have since quit or required, and of course there is a huge crew
of new "collectors" who are primarily "investors".
So don't say "It can't happen here".
