I actually have quite a lot of signed posters, and I love them, but I think the original question was about as investment or at least adding or detracting value. Most of the signed posters I have are signed to me personally, (with my name) so I have no desire ever to try and sell them. And I do love them more than their unsigned counterparts. The memory of meeting the person, or how the autograph came about, and even as the fan boy in me thinks, that for a few seconds that person just thought of ME!
Funny thing, is when I was in Las Vegas I asked Ted Mikels to sign some one sheets for me, and he gave me a box, some just signed, some signed to me, but somehow I have 3 or 4 Worm Eaters one sheets signed in various ways "to Ari", kinda cute. I have never bought a poster already signed though.
