What is the value of a Babe Ruth replica signed baseball?
Hi Folks- I recently acquired a single signature "Babe Ruth" baseball to broker for an estate. In order for you to receive the greatest value for the ball there are two things that I would suggest #1 - send it to PSA/DNA for authentication - The $150 cost is well worth giving your baseball the "seal of approval" for all prospective buyers. #2 Have PSA/DNA (California) GRADE the ball - this places it on an availability scale as to where it ranks with other similar balls.

Value may vary based on condition, and the type of authenticitythat accompanies the signature.

What is the value of a baseball signed by Babe Ruth?
Memorabilia signed by Ruth, Gehrig and DiMaggio is very highly sought by collectors. Unfortunately, pieces are also very often forged. Presuming authenticity, other key factors are: the size, placement and clarity of each autograph, and overall condition of the ball and signatures. The provenance; where and when obtained, may also dramatically affect value. If genuine, this ball would be worth between $1500 to as much as $2500, depending on the aforementioned factors.
