Baseball memorabilia associated with Babe Ruth are some of the most desirable items in the sports collectibles world. His autograph is in high demand, and items signed by him are in even greater demand. There are some things to consider when buying or selling his autograph. The first is the condition of the autograph. Signatures can degrade quickly and the more difficult a signature is to distinguish, the less valuable it is. Second, the item signed plays a role. Did he sign a ball from the gift shop, or did he sign a game ball; a program or a World Series program? Also, if his signature appears with other Yankee luminaries, the value of everyone’s signature increases. As added security, insist that the signature be authenticated by a recognized agency.
