Default Where is best place to sell signed 1950's Cards

Posted By: DJ

Honestly, it all depends on who you have and when they were signed. I have seen signed gum cards from the 1950's like Monte Irvin sell for as little as $5, but those who passed away before the "craze" of sending to ex-players home became after Smalling issued those address books, you will be wasting your time with insertion fees on eBay and you will only face disappointment.

I buy quite a few signed cards on eBay and I have paid as little as $3 for some signed common 1953 Topps cards (which blows my mind if you think about it) and some cards of players who perished in the sixties and fill want lists have sold for $80 or so. I once saw a Ray Oyler sell for $90 and I was like "What?".

You can group them up on eBay, or give them to a company like SCGaynor who will help sell them as they normally get pretty nice prices for items like this.

Good Luck!
