Mariano rivera did at 325 a year or so ago.


Shocked me, but I'd pay that for Aaron.

375 for this really? And never even get to meet him?

Or this for 81 bucks?? Same thing get a signed ball without meeting the man in person. Pretty sure I know what one I would like and still have 250 toward something else I was hunting..Just my 2 cents.

Brady does a signing every year. The problem is that he’s still playing. If you had him sign last year with 5x super bowl champ it would be outdated now at a cost of $1200+.

Now that you mentioned it, his signature was rather large, but thankfully the piece could handle a large signature. For space eating, there is nothing like a Frank Thomas signature being the first to sign a multi-signature piece.

I was in Vegas this past weekend, and went into "Field of Dreams" in the Venetian. Now, without getting into the ridiculousness of their prices, the "Hank Aaron" ball on the wall looked horrible, similar to the one posted here.

FWIW, the price was also comparable to the prices quoted in this thread.

I was looking on Ebay and found a smaller 1967 Poster Aaron With a period Aaron Signature and a Best Wishes inscription for half what a current Signature would have cost. So I pulled the trigger on that. It is in a Beckett holder and will look great on my wall. I had an Aaron, Sphan, Matthews ( Top of 1961 Braves yearbook) in a PSA holder I wanted to display but the holder size made it tough to find a good spot. So happy to get this

My favorite era of Aaron:

[bigfanNY]

1967 topps poster Signed by Aaron not my oldest Aaron. That would be a ball that he signed Henry during spring training 1954. Based on research I did ball was signed in south carolina during series of games between the Braves and Red sox. They had played many exhibition games during the 52 years they both played in Boston. But in 1953 the travel made that difficult so in 54 the agreed to meet in SC just before seasons opening for a few games. Must not have worked financially because last time they did it. My first National leauge game was Mets Braves in 1968.

Vintage Aaron on a Feeney ball. Slam dunk authentic. $127 shipped.

This is why I will never understand those buying the horrid recent signatures on modern balls.
