It is amazing how well Gone with the Wind collectibles have stood the test of time.  There have been many collectors plate series released honoring the film adaptation of Margaret Mitchell's time honored novel.  Many individual plates sell well on eBay whether it is as a replacement for a broken original or a finishing touch to a collection being built piece by piece.  Most common plates go for somewhere around ten dollars a piece, but there is a wide range in winning bid amounts.  Something to be careful of is not allowing yourself to get into a "bidding war" with someone over a plate.  Certainly, some plates will be worth what you end up paying, but don't get so caught up in a frenzy that you overpay for a plate that is not all that hard to find.

One nice thing about collecting GWTW plates is that there is a great selection.  With many makers providing a variety of series painted by different artists, you can almost certainly find something that you like.  Another thing to consider when collecting Gone with the Wind collectors plates is the actual images on the plates.  Does one series capture more of your favorite movie scenes than another?  That may play a part in your decision about which series to purchase.

Gone with the Wind is truly an American classic.  The 1939 movie still draws in new fans to this day.  Gary Cooper is rumored to have predicted that it would be a miserable flop at the time.  If you like GWTW trivia, you might enjoy this site.
