an ali cut or simple autograph on an islamic pamphlet is about 150 dollars, thats his cheapest autograph, but it goes to a few hundred for a nice unpersonalized 8 x 10 and more for a nice 16 x 20.
the good thing for collectors is he has signed copiously for over 40 years and has signed probably a couple million autographs, more than any human being has ever signed in human history, so there is no shortage. there is a great demand, but his autograph is not rare, just will cost a bit.
When he passes, prices will double or triple, but that will just be a bump in prices due to emotion, not reality. reality is he really cant sign anymore, so it's basically the same in terms of overall autographs out in the marketplace, there really isn't going to be any more.
