Posted By: <b>Bob</b><p>You have a seen &quot;a few&quot; signed Mathewson photos? <br><br>Where have you seen these? <br><br>I have come to understand that his signatures are a premium in any form...outside of course the two currently offered in Sauderton, PA (hint: think SCD) that rarity and Mathewson signatures as far as terminology goes, go hand and hand. <br><br>&quot;A few&quot; may better go with describing...say...Gehrig, but Mathewson signed photos?<br><br>Bob

Posted By: <b>Mark Steinberg</b><p>Should go for absolute crazy money. The image is as nice as the autograph (and that's saying a lot!) It might be fun to take a poll on this one, to guess the price (similar to what Leon does with cards, once a month).<br><br>My guess is $57,501

Posted By: <b>Bob</b><p>Gee Jackson, thanks.<br><br>I agree. This should go crazy even during these tough economic times, but does anyone have any doubts on the authenticity? It is very careful. <br><br>I would like some of the authenticators chime in. After all, we have all been programmed to accept these guys as the experts...but even the experts make mistakes. <br><br>Expensive mistakes.<br><br>Bob

Posted By: <b>davidcycleback</b><p>The photograph itself is grade A. Without a signature I would expect it to sell for thousands. Zooming in, you can clearly see the cloth patterns in his coat and socks, which is known as detail and clarity in a vintage photo.
