Default Here's mine




Ol' Rube must have been having a tough day...got a little confused and signed it twice! Or maybe he wanted this one to be twice as valuable...

In all seriousness, it looks like someone tried to forge his signature, failed, and then tried again. I bought this one on ebay with no expectation of it being an authentic signature; I just needed it for my collection and the price was right (i.e., cheap).

It is an authentic T206 at least. Back is Sov 150 with some paper loss. For me, the "signature(s)" just add character.

Now that is a riot! I wonder what the letter to him was like....was it Dr. Steen?

Dear Marquard,

I have followed your storied career and am insisting upon 15 signed cards,

Sincerely,

Steen

It would fit into my collection perfectly, for sure. The problem is one of valuation. Even if Jeff was interested in selling or trading it, Marquard signed index cards are a dime a dozen. I'm certain I couldn't offer anything close to what it's worth to him.

+1. A dime a dozen, though.

Yeah, there are 31 signed index cards of Marquard on ebay now, starting at $19.99. This beauty can be had for $29.99:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/RUBE-MARQUAR...item4d02c9c556

The question is really how much does that amazing inscription add to the value of an otherwise $30 autographed index card? At that point you're paying for content more than signature. The value of content is extremely subjective.

When I bought this Snodgrass collection, the letter wasn't much more than a throw-in. But, because of the content, and reference to a signed "Cigarette Photo card", it is more or less priceless to me. That's my subjective value.
