Default Autograph Collectors - Your Thoughts On Autograph Index Cards

Do you see less value in an autographed index card, compared to other items autographed? Example would be, an autographed 1953 Mickey Mantle Card compared to an autographed Mickey Mantle Index Card. Both signatures are really nice. The signature on the index card is perfectly centered, but no inscription.

Myself, I think an autographed 1953 Mickey Mantle Card would be much nicer than an index card. However, some collectors look at it as an autograph on a card devalues the card value somewhat. But I've also seen really nice autographs on index cards, yet, someone bought and preferred a fading autograph on a card, photo, etc.

This purchase would be a high dollar investment $12,000 to $15,000. It's for me to enjoy for now, but to also sell one day. I would hate to invest in an autographed index card, if the desire of collectors isn't that great.

Thanks!
