What is the value of a baseball autographed by Nolan Ryan?
That all depends on the year, if its a rookie card or anything from his beginning year to his mid years, than a lot, but if they are 2007 baseball cards or reprints, than not too much. A 1968 Topps #177 Nolan Ryan Rookie card would be worth more "not autographed", than one that is signed. A Nolan Ryan 1983 Topps #360 card with a book value of about $2.50 would be worth more with an autograph. Once a collectible baseball card is signed the value of the card dramatically goes down as a collectible. The card then becomes an Item to display the signature. The bulk of the value relies on the value of the signature of the player that signed the card, and how well the card displays the signature. Collectible items could add value to the price of a signature but not always. As in the case of a baseball card, generally a collector of baseball cards would rather have a baseball card without the signature. The signature would be considered as a flaw in the condition of the card and will lower the value. In general a signed baseball card is worth about 30% - 40% the price of a signed baseball or the same price of a signed 8 x 10 photo. A high valued baseball card might add some value to the signature, but the signature is the collectible not the card.
A collector of signatures will not always pay extra for the "collectible" baseball card. The autograph collectors main concern is displaying the signature. This is why it is not a good idea to have an expensive baseball card signed. You could devalue the price of the card, and get less for it. Even if the baseball card has a low value today, if the price goes up in the future the value will be diminished by the signature.
