Wise choice. 90s era Jeter signatures are far more desirable than his later private signing slop IMO.

In my experience, Steiner tends to use VERY light and fine tip blue ballpoint pens. I have seen examples where the ink seemingly evaporates and the signatures do not hold up -- even when stored in the dark. For the prices they charge, you'd think they could use a bold, medium point blue ballpoint for maximum signature quality.
