Baseballs featuring the genuine autograph of Babe Ruth are highly sought by collectors and potentially very valuable. Unfortunately, they are also very often forged. Presuming authenticity, values can range dramatically. Key factors are: the placement and clarity of Ruth's signature (the bigger and bolder, the better), the type of ball (is it an "Official American League" ball?), and the all-important overall condition of the ball and signature. The provenance; the who, what, when and where of a signed ball's history, may also add value if it's documented. If genuine, your ball would be worth $1500 to as much as $7500, depending on all the aforementioned factors. The toning and "yellowing" you describe would be a non-issue if the signature is authentic, but just FYI, an absolutely pristine signed Ruth ball could be worth $10,000-12,000, and perhaps more. With Autographs, a picture is truly worth the proverbial thousand words, and can save alotta time in the authentication, appraisal, and selling process.

Although there are places one could purchase a Babe Ruth autograph the authenticity of such an autograph should be verified carefully. Unless you are lucky enough to come across one unexpectedly, the only place to purchase would be an auction or through a personally placed advertisement.
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.
it is worth about 35,000 dollars, i wouldn't sell it thoughGeorge Herman Ruth signed baseballA Babe Ruth signature is 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. If the signature is not properly authenticated the signed picture could sell at half the market value or less. The signature should be bold, strong, and stand out in contrast to the photo. A weak, and faded signature will sell for less. Most autographs in Ruth's day was signed with a fountain pen. A signature with the quotation marks around "Babe" typifies his pre-1928 autograph and will sell at a higher value.A baseball Signed with his full name "George Herman Ruth" will sell at a higher price at about $20,000.-$30,000.
The scorecard with only Ruth's authenticated autograph, would be worth $300-$600. Aarons autograph added to the card 20 years later (he was born Feb 5th, 1934), will diminish the cards value by at least half. If it had an authenticated autograph of Ruth only and if the signature and card is in Class 1 condition, value would be $800-$1200. If it was Aarons authenticated autograph on a scorecard during one of his world series, it would be worth $200-$400. But I'm sorry to inform you that autographs of two different players, twenty years minimum apart, diminishes the value in half or less than half. Remember, its who signed it, where it was signed, and when it was signed and most of all are the autographs authenticated. For instance: If you had the "716 baseball" that Aaron broke Ruth's 25 year home run record of 715, and it had an authenticated Hank Aaron signature on it, it would be priceless simply because it has a story to go with it. I believe a drunk fan got off with the ball unsigned and there has been hundreds fail authentication since.
