I am pretty sure I have an authentic autographed magazine photo of James J Braddock (Cinderella Man). I got this out of a scrap book many many years ago and it has lived in an acrylic in my baseball card collection. It's about 4x6, black ink, most likely a fountain pen.

It came from a 1930s era book. Sig is good and strong. Where does it rate in the desirability scale? Not really looking to sell, but if I can turn it into something I would prefer it might be worth considering. If it's of only modest value, it will continue to live among my baseball stuff. Thanks.

Demand for Braddock stuff was at it's peak a few years ago when the movie came out. Not so much anymore but still higher then it was before the movie.

He's not a tough signature, though he is harder then other guys like Dempsey and Tunney. A clean signed smaller magazine photo might sell in the $100-$125 range.
