Your preferred media for baseball autographs
I'm still relatively new to autograph collecting and of course there is a number of different types of media that baseball autographs can be collected on. What do you focus on and why?
My collection currently focuses on singled signed vintage OAL or ONL balls of HOFers and Pirate team signed balls from 1979 and earlier. I just really like the older Harridge, Cronin, Frick, Giles, etc... baseballs. |

The point for me is to have a variety of media. I love it all, from cards to postcards, 8x10s, letters, scorecards, checks, contracts, etc. I just bought some signed sheet music (and got outbid on another). I have a few baseballs and like them, but they can be tough to store when your collection grows, not to mention pricey, as they are the preferred medium of many collectors like yourself.
I know some collectors like their collection to be uniform. To each their own!

I've been collecting autos for about a year.I also like different things signed. Checks,cards,balls,books,etc.The only things I don't liked signed is game used stuff like jerseys and hats.

I generally like baseballs. But for players with a lot out there (Mays, Mantle, Ted Williams, Joe Dimaggio etc) I would prefer to have them on a card issued during their playing career.

I like white unlined paper that can be matted with a photo. Either a 3x5 or GPC or Album Page.
I prefer single signed items, something that will look good behind glass. |

Cards. Preferably Exhibit cards.
