For a later life "Shaky" signature, expect to pay in the $500-$1000 range depending on the piece quality. There was a time maybe 3 years ago that Mike Guttierez had a few in an auction (I think maybe Jeff's came from there) and I have only seen one or two since. He is not that difficult for a 1940's death date but his popularity makes him fairly valuable and many are tucked into collections. I have only ever personally seen one early example and it was not for sale so I have no idea how much of a premium it would go for, but my guess would be $1500-$2000 for a nice and clean career era example. if I had to venture a guess (Just a guess) I would say there are somewhere between 50-100 examples in the hobby total unless some family hoard ever pops up.
