What is the value of an official America 1927-1929 ball signed by Babe Ruth and these other six baseball Hall of Famers - Gehrig Dickey Red Ruffing Herb Pennock Lefty Gomez and Earl Combs?
Signed baseballs documenting this era of New York Yankees teams are very collectible and often, very valuable. According to the collector's guide "Team Baseballs," your ball is worth at minimum $1400, but this value can be much greater depending on the players present, and in particular, inclusion of the players you've mentioned -- but especially the presence of Ruth and Gehrig. Presuming authenticity, the key factor in value is the specific year and the all-important overall condition of the ball and autographs. Other key factors include: type of ball ("Official American League" ball?), whether there are any "clubhouse signatures" (autographs signed by ballboys, attendants, etc.), and the total number of signatures present. Both Ruth's and Gehrig's signatures were often signed by others, and as such, the authenticity of their signatures is a critical factor in determining value. With autographs, a picture is truly worth the proverbial thousand words, and can save alotta time in the authentication, appraisal, and selling process.
