Best Answer
The Value was Measured in Trade

Baseball cards in the 1920's were not the valuable collectibles they are today. Baseball cards were given away as advertising premiums to help promote a product. They were not sold in stores by the pack, and they were not available in hobby shops to buy. They had no collectors value. Baseball cards were traded between kids, hence the name "trading cards." A Babe Ruth card would have had a value in trade.

At The beginning of the 1920's You might have had to trade Two Babe Ruth Cards for one TY Cobb card. By the end of the 1920's You might have had an even trade or if you threw in another player's card with Ty Cobb.

What is the value of a Babe Ruth card with a fake atograph?

The value depends on which card it is, and what you mean by fake autograph. If you mean a facsimile autograph, a copy of Babe Ruth's signature that is part of the printing of the card, then the value of the card will rely on the year, and the set the card is from. If you mean someone wrote on the card "Babe Ruth" then the value of the card will be drastically lowered in value, if any value at all.
