As Nicolai has reported, great economists’ autographs can be had for just a few dollars. This lot of Hayek artifacts — lecture notes, memoranda, autographed picture postcards, and the like — recently sold at auction for £3,400, according to Bonhams. Wonder what my stuff would go for?

    Start building a reliquary now, Peter. (We’ll add the bits of bone later) LIke Hayekian artifacts, your relics will be highly priced well after your demise.

    My students already think of me as an old relic!
