James Dean Lions Club Collectors Pins & Memorabilia

We have a collection of James Dean Lions Club collector pins.  We have every year from 1992 through 2004.  In 1993 only 500 pins were made, while the other years were limited to 1,000 pins.  The pins have all been kept in a glass case with the pin going through a foam pad.  They each have their original bag and collector card which identifies their number of authenticity, picture of the pin itself, and a little history about the image chosen for that year.  We also have a additional pins for each of the following years: 1996, (3) of 1997, (3) of 1998, (3) of 1999, (1) 2000, (1) 2001, (1) 2002, (1) 2003, (1) 2004. Each of the additional pins have never been out of their original plastic bag.  We also have 4 (1998-2001) limited edition James Dean Run collector caps.  They are each in their original packaging with certificate of authenticity.  Only 600 of these caps were made and we have #124 of 600 for each year.  These are the first four caps in the series.  Finally, we have a James Dean stamp encased in a glass type of paper weight.  It is a limited edition, number 397 of 500 made.  I have included a few quick pictures of what we have.

History
My father-in-law collected them beginning in 1992. He was a past President of the Lions Club and began collecting as a tradition. He eventually passed away in 2000. Friends of his were able to collect pins for a few years after his death. They have been in storage since 2004 and we are looking to find a value on them.
