What is the value of a Babe Ruth signed Baseball Card?

Writing on a baseball card in most cases destroys the value of the card. However, in the case of an autograph by a player as famous as Babe Ruth can be an exception. You called your card a Babe Ruth "rookie" card. Please be more specific about the year, manufacturer's name, condition of the card, and condition of the autograph. Please send me an email at kevinkasper@netzero.com if you would like to discuss further.

Autograph brings the value to about 40% of the original card value. Good rule of thumb... don't get a rookie card signed unless you are never going to sell it and it's only for your sentelmental value.

Babe Ruth Baeball Card - Signed Item

A Babe Ruth Rookie Card, and a Signed Babe Ruth Rookie Card are two different items.

A 1914 Babe Ruth Rookie baseball card - just the tenth card of its kind to be discovered - which sold at auction in April. for about $270,000. The card was produced by the Baltimore Sun Newspaper. The second most valuable baseball card behind only the 1909 M206 Honus Wagner tobacco card (which recently sold at auction for $2.35 million).

The 40% is about right but not the value of the card but the value of the signature. Once the card is signed it loses it's value as a collectible baseball card. It now becomes a "signed item" to display the signature. The signature would be considered as a flaw in the condition of the card and the bulk of the value will rely on the signature. The card collector will not spend the money on the card. It will be appealing to the autograph collector but the autograph collector will not spend the extra money on the Collectible card.

Signed baseball cards typically sell at a bout 30-40 percent the price of a signed baseball or the price of a signed 8 x 10 photo. The price could also vary based on the popularity of the player, and how sought after the signature is. A high valued card can add some value but not come close to it's un-signed value.

Signatures that are not authenticated could sell at half the market value or less.
