Photographs signed by Jessica Alba bring a decent price in the collectibles market. Certain retailers offer them at prices ranging from around one hundred dollars to a little more than three hundred. The actual value of the autographed photo is determined by the authenticity of the autograph, and the popularity of Jessica Alba. If the signature has not been authenticated, its value is very low, maybe around five to seven dollars. Value for her signed photographs also increase as her popularity rises, most notably after a successful film or upon receipt of an award. The price can be driven up during this period of popularity by selling the photograph in an auction setting, rather than at a set retail price.

Signed Leonardo DiCaprio autographed photos bring from around one hundred dollars, to over four hundred dollars for signed scenes from certain films. Scenes from “Titanic” and “The Departed” and “Romeo and Juliet” command the highest rates. If you have a scene from any of these films with the female lead, and both have signed the print, the price increases again. The most important factor in the value of the signed artifact is authentication of the autograph – reassurance that it was signed by the actor, and that it is not an reproduction.

Depending on certain variables, a Tom Cruise autographed photo can bring a modest return in the collectibles market. If the photo is from his Academy Award winning role in Jerry Maguire, or from his critically acclaimed films, the going price will be greater than photos from lesser films. Critical to all this is the authenticity of the autograph. In order to receive the highest prices, the photo must be signed by the actor himself. Otherwise, it will be deemed mechanically reproduced and bring only three to five dollars on the market. As protection, have the signature on the picture authenticated and get a certificate as proof of its authenticity.

Marilyn Monroe memorabilia is some of the most sought after in the movie collectibles industry. An authenticated signature on her photo can brings hundreds or thousands of dollars, depending on the quality of the autograph, the photo, and who is interested in buying the picture. The right combination of elements could create a buying frenzy, driving the price up. Begin by contacting an expert on Marilyn Monroe memorabilia and ask for an appraisal (it is best to get two or three) to get a general idea what the value might be, and why it has that value. If you get an evaluation you like, and are interested in selling the item, sell it to a vendor or put it up for auction – the auction will probably bring a higher price. You can auction the photo through an auction house or through an on-line auction website.

Autographed photos of JFK have a tremendous interest among collectors. Those who collect presidential memorabilia want these pictures and as well as though who collect items associated with President Kennedy directly. Because photos of him are increasingly rare, and autographed ones even rarer, a signed photo with an authenticated autograph can be valuable. Authentication is the crucial phase. Without it, the picture has limited value. If the signature is deemed authentic, the value increases, and could increase at a steady rate if several people want to buy the photograph. A good auction house will be able to get the best price for the autographed photo.
