Babe Ruth SignatureSignatures will vary in price based on condition, the type of authenticity that accompanies the signature, the item signed, and how well the item displays the signature. Baseballs are the most common, and preferred by collectors because of it's connection to the game, low cost, availability and it displays the signature well. The signed Baseball represents the average price for a signature, and by deducting or adding from this price for the Item signed accordingly will give you a good idea on value.

The lowest priced signed item would be for a "cut Signature." A cut signature is a signature on a piece of paper, or "cut" from a larger piece. Index cards are the next step up, and both sell at a fraction (about 10%-20%) the price of an autographed baseball. Autograph photos typically sell at about 40-60 percent the price of a baseball with bats, uniform Jersey's and equipment selling at a higher price due to the higher cost of the item, rarity and display.

In general if an autographed baseball is worth $100. the same autograph on a 8 x 10 photo $50. a cut signature $20. on a bat $150. The percentage of the price could also vary based on the popularity of the player, and how sought after the signature is.

In the case of Babe Ruth, his signature is one of the most prized signatures in the hobby. A Babe Ruth single signed baseball in general is worth about $6,000.-$10,000. Value may vary based on condition, and the type of authenticity that accompanies the signature

Babe Ruth "cut Signatures" sell for about $2,000.-$3,000. Cut Signatures are often cut from an item that has been ruined to save its value from such items as a cover of a publication, photograph, letter or notebook on which it was originally signed. Cuts are commonly used by collectors to display with a framed photo, or for inserts by baseball card companies.

The signature should be bold, and strong, and a weak, and faded signature will sell for less. Most Autographs in Ruth's day was signed with a fountain pen. A signature with the quotation marks around "Babe" typifies his pre-1928 autograph and will sell at a higher value.

How much is an autograph of Babe Ruth worth in an old address book?

Assuming the signature is authentic, the value and interest to collectors becomes a function of: 1) the clarity, legibility and overall condition of the signature, 2) the size and placement of the signature, and possibly 3) the provenance - meaning the who, what, when and where of its history. Items genuinely signed by Babe Ruth are always in demand, particularly baseballs, but demand has increased for "cut" signatures recently, as they offer collectors many more options for display than baseballs and photos. Depending upon the aforementioned variables, a genuine Babe Ruth signature may be worth several hundred dollars to approximately $1000. In terms of assessing and appraising such a signature, a photo is extremely helpful and worth the proverbial thousand words.


Where can you sell a cut index card authentic signature from Babe Ruth?

The best place to sell the Babe Ruth cut signature would be through an auction house. If you sell it to a dealer you will only get about half the market value, more or less depending on the condition of the signature. The "authentic" signature would need to be authenticated to get top dollar as well. Signatures that have not been properly authenticated could sell at half the market value or less.
