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. The type of baseball will also effect the price with an Official American league baseball from Ruth's playing days being of the most value.
A baseball in poor condition with a weak signature could sell in the $4,000. price range or less, and a minty baseball with a strong signature could sell in the $15,000 price range or more. But with all said the strength of the authenticity that accompanies the signature will hold the bulk of the value. If the signature is not properly authenticated the baseball could sell at half the market value or less.
If the baseball is inscribed, and dated "1948" by Babe Ruth the baseball will have extra value. The Babe was dying of throat cancer, and past away that year. Being very ill, he most likely did not sign many baseballs. On July 26, 1948, Babe Ruth attended the premier of the film about his life, The Babe Ruth Story, which starred William Bendix. Ruth however was feeling very ill, and left well before the film was finished. Three weeks later, on Aug.16 1948 Babe Ruth Passed away.
