For your high value collectibles you might try Christie's or Sotheby's in New York, they both handle "high dollar" Antiques.
Years ago my Father sold two of his books at Christie's in New York; one was an Autograph Book with autographs of famous people, important News clippings, and other rare memorabilia, - he had Amelia Earhart's autograph plus a personalized photo & autograph on the day she took off on her round-the-world trip; newspaper articles on the Hindenburg Disaster (he was 1/2 a block away and saw it happen) ; a piece of the wing fabric, photos, autographs, and newspaper clippings of the US Navy's NC-4 Flying Boat on the historic FIRST Trans-Atlantic flight. - And a whole lot more.
The other book that my Father sold was about the RMS Titanic. The book contained actual photographs of the construction of the Titanic, photos of the completed ship, Captain & Crew, the Ballroom and the Grand Staircase, Passengers boarding, actual fold-out Blueprints of different parts of the ship, a complete Passenger Manifest, and a list of all the survivors.

I used to look at those books when I was a youngster.
