Rudy Guiliani's "Leadership"

Last year I stood in line at borders to get 4 copies of "Leadership"
signed by Rudy Giuliani. I know absolutlely nothing about collecting
autographs or the appreciation potential if I hold on to them. I read
one and am considering selling them on ebay. Or could I wait and hold
on to them as an investment. TIA.

Unless you plan to sell them about Septebmer 11th of other years to
come, doubt they'd be anymore valuable than now. They might decrease.
I'd speculate they might get up to 25-50% more neare Sept. 11th

As long as someone is alive, don't get your hope up on the worth. After all
they're still around to sign, making the current autographs around worth
less and less.

Not always true, some celebs were worth a ton while alive... but he is
tied forever to that incident so his value will be based on the
publicity it generates. As time passes and it becomes a long ago
memory, the value will be less... until (like antiques) a 50 year or
100 year rememberance will be in the news. Peak value will be then
(maybe at 10 or 25 also). But in between times, value lesser.

This is based soley on my observance of antiques and other things I've
been sort of mentally tracking. I've just noticed trends. It's just
my opinion only however.

I'm not an expert...but it seems that anyone who really wanted a copy and would
be willing to pay for it could get one.

Still, see what it is going for on ebay.
You can try your luck- put a reserve price on it and if it doesn't sell, figure
no loss.

tell the story about his signing
