Wonderful piece!

Great lineup of hall of famers... My guess would be on or around $3500

Thanks! I need others to chime in here…trying to get an idea of a firm value in todays autograph market.…so far I have one idea here and two other people in the hobby whom I have contacted and things are still not too clear…Thanks for looking at my post.

agreed w Dave. maybe a bit more, only since this is such an amazing grouping. Needs a specialized buyer tho

In an auction format I don't think it gets that high. This would be a situation where the sum of the parts are greater than the value as a whole. Especially if there are non-HOFer autographs on it as well (I can't tell if that is the case or not). My guess is that, in a retail format (show, store, Ebay BIN etc) it would be $4,000, but at auction through a major house the number would likely be in the $2,500 range.

Such a unique piece though, so it really is just a guess based on somewhat similar-ish items I have tracked over the years.

Thanks for your input.

I think Tom has a good point - and his estimates for a single sale seem reasonable. Unfortunately slabbed cut sigs of the big names like Cobb Young etc sold individually would probably bring a higher price than this very nice piece.
