Should your estate have automotive memorabilia in it we can help you find a way to sell those items. We work with many automobilia auction houses and dealers, as well as have marketing opportunities to private collectors.

AutoMobilia Resource can help executors and families determine how automotive memorabilia and collectibles within an estate might be brought to the appropriate specialty market. These items can be difficult to evaluate or sell through general estate channels because their value may depend on rarity, condition, manufacturer, subject matter, historical significance, and collector demand.

Automotive memorabilia can include signs, petroliana, badges, model cars, racing memorabilia, license plates, automotive literature, hood ornaments, advertising pieces, gas and oil collectibles, toys, posters, photographs, and other items associated with automotive history and culture.

What AutoMobilia Resource can do for the estate

• Help identify appropriate selling channels for automotive memorabilia within an estate
• Connect estate representatives with automobilia auction houses and specialty dealers
• Provide opportunities to market appropriate items to private collectors
• Help executors distinguish specialty automotive collectibles from items that may be better suited to general estate-sale channels
• Provide access to a market focused specifically on automobilia, petroliana, and related automotive collectibles

For an executor who encounters a collection of automotive memorabilia among a decedent’s personal property, AutoMobilia Resource can provide a starting point for understanding where those items fit within the specialty collector market and what options may be available for their sale.
