[QUOTE="clutteredcloset49, post: 381360, member: 85"]Hello and welcome to the board. I can't help with how many plates may have been made. There are people such as yourself who still buy plates, because they like them and want to hang them. Or maybe because they fit in with other items in a collection. However, for the most part collector plates were a marketing ploy using the "collector" term to entice people to buy. People were led to believe that the values would go up. Overall most collector plates have no great value. Having said that, there are still a few plates that can bring 20-30 dollars a plate. I sold one particular plate for $65. The one you purchased is very nicely done. Don't think I have seen any from that series. I can see where it would have appeal, and I would probably give it a good price. When buying plates, don't be fooled by the "limited edition". Buy a plate because you like it, will enjoy it, and it is a price you are willing to pay. Don't buy a plate because it might increase in value.[/QUOTE]
