Posted By: <b>Bill Mack</b><p>A friend of mine is in possession of a 1950's Callahan signed by Christy Mathewson's wife. I'm thinking the next best thing to a Christy autograph is Mrs. Christy Mathewson.<br />He is considering James Spence for authentication and I am thinking the same thing. Is this a good choice for authentication? Also would the value of Mrs. Christy Mathewson run pretty good against Christy Mathewson auto's say at 10%-15% the value??<br />Any insight would be helpful!!<br /><br />THANKS MUCH!!<br /><br />BILL MACK<br />trialb2002@yahoo.com

Posted By: <b>T206Collector</b><p>There was an autographed T206 card signed by Mrs. Matty (Dark Cap pose) making the rounds on ebay a few years ago. It was PSA/DNA certified, and it never went for more than a $100-$150, if memory serves me. I think Bender's wife did the same thing. <br /><br />In any event, JSA is fine for this sort of thing, but on a percentile basis, it is more like 1-2% of Matty's value.<br /><br><br>_ <u> </u> _ <u> </u> _ <u> </u> _ <u> </u> _ <u> </u> _ <u> </u> _ _ <br /><br /><a href="http://www.t206collector.com" target="_new" rel="nofollow">http://www.t206collector.com</a>

Posted By: <b>Richard S. Simon</b><p>I agree, the value of Mrs Mathewson's signature is very, very minimal and not even worth spending money to authenticate.<br />==<br><br>I refuse to engage in a battle of wits with an unarmed opponent.<br />Unknown author <br />--<br />We made a promise.
