I've been tracking the price of rare books by cartoonist Ronald Searle for a number of years now. Lately, I'm starting to see some evidence that prices may be retreating a bit some eleven years after his passing. A limited edition copy of Ronald Searle in Le Monde, for example, one of two hundred signed by the artist, was recently offered at 50 GBP, an excellent price. The collection of political illustrations was published in 2002, but Searle's cover illustration, at the very least, doesn't seem to have lost any of its bite.
