Buy what you love and what you will enjoy having in your home or office. Do not buy for financial investment or speculation. Given the semantically broad appeal of the word “investment” and the increase in price of many past publications, it is understandable that a collector might look for some assessment of  the potential for future appreciation in value. However, all FREDERICK consultants are instructed to stay completely away from the subject of art as a medium for investment.
