Antique Globe & Map Values

I've been collecting maps and globes that I find particularly interesting over the past several years. I'm interested in assessing the value of them.

I've never really educated myself on the subject - I just know what I like and I've bought a few.

Is anyone familiar with a good resource for educating yourself on the history of globe and map making/publishing and a resource for evaluating their worth?

FYI - someone pointed me to this resource. Looks to be a lot of good info here. And links to more good info.
