It is very rare to come across an autographed Babe Ruth baseball bat. There are not enough signed Babe Ruth bats to give you an accurate value. It wasn't a common item to have signed in Ruth's day. Baseballs were readily available, and Ruth signed plenty. Fountain pens were used to sign most Autographs, and it might have been a bad choice to sign a bat. I did find a bat that was painted silver before Babe Ruth personally inscribed and dated his Fountain pen signature on it. The bat sold for $12,969. I would think that a higher quality Baseball bat would sell for $20,000. and up.
You might have a Babe Ruth endorsed signature model baseball bat. This signature that appears on the bat is stamped on at the factory, and is placed on the barrel. Depending on the condition, size, make, and model it could be worth between $300. -$500. Bats with decals, and pro model bat would be worth more.

Whats your 1905 baseball bat signed and used by Babe Ruth worth?
1905 George Herman Ruth was 10 years oldBabe Ruth made his Major League debut on July 11, 1914. In 1905 Babe Ruth was 10 years old. in 1905 Honus Wagner, a star for the Pittsburgh Pirates, signed a contract with Hillerich & Bradsby co. and became the first player ever to endorse a bat. His autograph was also the first to be used on a bat and the first known professional athlete endorsement of a retail product. The bat you have could not possibly be a Babe Ruth game used baseball bat from 1905. If the bat was made in 1905, and used by Babe Ruth at a later date you would need very strong provenance showing that the bat was used by Babe Ruth.
