Autographs are not everyone's cup of tea, but their interest level goes beyond signed T206 cards.
Printing anomolies in baseball cards spike wicked high on T206 -- why not other sets?

Here's one way to look at it... you personally have offered $2500+ for any signed T206 not in your collection. Hypothetically, you'd pay over $2500 for a signed Harry Pattee card (likely much more), but if Mr. Pattee had signed a rare program or a vintage ticket, you would never pay that much for his signature. Part of it, as already mentioned, is the mystique of T206, and the crazy people that collect her.
