Some questions for autograph collectors...

[tlwise12]

I'm not used to dealing with autographs, but would like to purchase a few so I'm hoping for some help!

I just have a few really broad and random questions!

Thanks in advance!

1) Approx. how many Babe Ruth balls (single and multi signed balls) would one venture to say exist?
2) What would be a decent price for a single signed ball (in decent condition)? A multi signed ball?
3) Same questions for SATCHEL PAIGE???
4)What would be the value of a Josh "Brute" Johnson single signed ball (Negro Leaguer)???


Also, if anyone has any of these for sale please email at tlwise12@aol.com

Thanks!

As to your first question, the answer is "many." No one has any idea how many, and any guess would be so unverifiable as to be pure nonsense.
Suffice it to say that the "supply" is quite large.
But the demand is larger.

A decent single-signed ball would run at least $5k. And since a multi-signed ball would, in all probability, be a vintage Yankee team ball (with a Gehrig signature), it, too, would run about $5k in decent shape.
