Hi Michael,
Tons of research on your part if you have no idea about values. Hiring a reputable auction company to liquidate the contents will cost you, but the end results would probably surpass any expectations you were advised up front. You stumbled upon a great site, keep posting and asking questions. Wishing you the Best of Luck!

A lot of great advise from some of the good guys on here. Be careful who you invite to see the collection because some unfriendly folks watch this site also. Mattgas is a good place to start and if Dan can't help you he would lead you in the right direction for sure. I don't think anyone on here can say much bad about him, he couldn't have stayed around this long messing folks over.I have never sold items thru him but have bought a couple from him. Good luck!
Always looking for Mississippi company items, Billups, southland, ride with rose.

Not sure why you guys are trying to message them??? Post if you have advice or a suggestion and dont try to WEASEL your way in... SORRY to have to say this but BEWARE the guys that have already messaged you about selling them something or sending them pictures??? Feel free to EXPOSE anyone trying to buy things prematurely. Take your time and appraise EVERY sign. Signs have exploded in value these last several years and signs has been a better investment than Gold! So treat the collection better than GOLD! Protect your inheritance at ALL COST! Good Luck and may the sign collector RIP

No different THAN begging ebayers to END auctions early, SOME should practice WHAT they preach!

Save the messages... do some research. If you don'tt want to mess with it then Dan Matthews is the guy to consign it to and let him auction it off. There are several other auction companies coming into the pic now but as far a knowledge... Dan is at top. Welcome to site and like others said... be careful of the hawks circling ready to swoop in.
Looking for anything from Hoosier Pete, Platolene 500 and Red Bird.
