Why is the the Joe Jackson auto worth only 40000 if it is even rarer that the 1909 Honus Wagner card and the 1909 Honus Wagner card is worth 2 million dollars?

First thing. You are comparing the value of a signature (apples) with the value of a baseball card (Oranges). Two different collectible items, two different groups of collectors. The value of a 1909 T206 Honus Wagner card is not $2 million dollars. This is the value of the "Gretzky T206 Honus Wagner" card which there is only one in existence making it more rare than a Joe Jackson signed baseball.A "Shoeless" Joe Jackson Single signed baseball has a "book Value" of about $25,000.-$40,000. But because they are so rare, it has been a long time since one has sold at auction. The book value is based on older auctions, and cannot be updated until another is sold at auction. In today's market if a Joe Jackson single signed baseball in excellent condition were to be sold at auction it would most likely sell at a record price much more than the current "Book Value"The 2.8 million dollar 1909 T206 Honus Wagner card was the card that belonged to Wayne Gretzky, and I am sure this is the reason why the price is inflated. When Wayne Gretzky and Bruce McNall bought the T206 Honus Wagner card in 1991 for $451,00 there were also less known example of the card. Other T206 Honus Wagner cards have recently sold in the $200,000. -$400,000. price range. This would be closer to the market value of this card. The famous "Gretzky T206 Honus Wagner" baseball card will have a higher value than all other T206 Wagner cards because of it's history, and should be valued as a separate item.With that said. If a Joe Jackson single signed baseball in excellent condition should sell at auction in today's market it just might compete in value with a 1909 T206 Honus Wagner card, but not the ""Gretzky card" which is more rare (only one) than a Joe Jackson signed baseball.See Related Questions below for more info on Joe Jackson Signatures.
