Automobilia in Monterey
In the last decade, automobilia has hit the mainstream market and has benefited from the steady rise of collector car values. In one form or another, automobilia, which includes automotive art, mascots, petroliana, literature, books and more, is found at virtually all the major car events, including Meadow Brook Hall, Amelia Island, Barrett-Jackson and the granddaddy of them all, Pebble Beach..
