Why do autographs increase/decrease in value?

Autographs, essentially the physical embodiment of any celebrity's signature, have been highly prized by fans for centuries. It is also one of the more popular applications for preserving a memory or moment (autographs) associated with celebrity work, typically being collector's items.
The biggest factor in an autograph's value by far is how famous the person who owns it happens to be. The more well-known a celebrity is, the higher their autograph is priced on eBay. It would be something if a Nobel Laureate signed the manuscript versus some local C-list celebrity.
Also, the age of an autograph can affect its value. Older rare autographs—or massive ones generally—tend to be more valuable than new ones. This is because they are frequently perceived as a reminder of the celebrity's heritage.
Lastly, there is the issue of authenticity in autographs. Some might be so faded and worn that you can barely read them. These can be worth more, sometimes significantly so.
In a nutshell, autographs may appreciate or decrease in value for various reasons, among some being how famous the celebrity who has signed Isard if it should be, something that can also influence his fame, and finally, an aged yet well-maintained signature. Signatures serve as excellent memorabilia to commemorate the legacy of many, also serving as prized collectibles.
