What is the value of a Sharpie signed Mickey Mantle photo?

Answer 1

Nothing. The Sharpie type of pen was NOT invented until AFTER Mr Mantle DIED, so he could NOT have signed that one. Mickey Mantle was alive, and well in the late 1980s when he signed my Black & White Photo in Sharpie. I will include a link for you to see. You will also find information on what it's worth. Authenticating the signature will raise the value. PSA/DNA is one of the top authenticators in the business. The original Sharpie marker was first introduced in 1964 and has since expanded into a wide product line. Today, Sharpies are sold in seven varieties, according to the shape and size of their tip(s), ranging from "Ultra Fine" to "Super Bold". They also come in 34 ink colors.....

Price will vary based on condition, and the type of authenticity that accompanies the signature. Photo composition, and appeal will effect the price as well. Part of the value will be determined by how well the photo displays the signature. The type of ink used, and how it stands out in contrast to the photograph will also effect the price. Sharpie would be most preferred for a photo. Larger and more desired pictures could sell for more.

Mickey Mantle signed a lot of Autographs. One of the most sought after signatures, there are also a lot of fakes on the market. The numbers are alarming. This is why to get top dollar for an autograph it should be properly authenticated. Signatures that are not properly authenticated could sell at half the market value or less.

There were many Mickey Mantle pins that have been made over the years. One of the most collected of ballplayer's Mickey Mantle pins sell anywhere from $10. - $500.

The rarest, and most expensive Mickey mantle pin is the 1952 Mickey Mantle Fan Club celluloid pin. With fewer than five known examples this pin sells in the price range of $7,000. - $12,000.

The Mickey Mantle Fan Club pin holds the record at auction for any postwar Baseball celluloid, when Barry Halper's example sold for $12,650 in the famous Halper auction in 1999 (Lot #1546).

The most popular pins are the PM10 Stadium Photo Pins.

The Mickey Mantle pins with the least value are the "A Day to Remember" pins that can be easily bought on eBay for about $5. I suspect that these pins are reproductions because there are too many pins on the market in mint condition.

Honorable mention, the 1956 Mickey Mantle Yellow Basepath pins. These green pins with yellow base paths have the facsimile signature of the respective ballplayer at the bottom. The pins were made available in gumball machines in 1956 for a penny. The Mickey Mantle pin in excellent - near/mint condition sells for about $500.

Answer 3

Yes. A Mickey Mantle picture taken with a Polaroid camera, and other personal snap shots are highly collectible. A "snap shot" of Mickey Mantle could sell from $40.-$200,

Value will vary based on photo subject, and composition; what Mantle is doing, who he's with, in or out of uniform, or on or off the field. The ballpark Mantle is playing in with older ballparks that no longer exist selling higher. The quality of the photo, and size will also factor in. Photographs made from the original photo are also more valuable.
