That's a tough one. It's really all about the buyer. I've seen autographs of DiMaggio sell roughly for $100-$200 range. Now the card is another story. I've seen vintage cards autographed sell in the $500 range in that era.It's tough to give you a price. But still a nice piece for the collection.

Picked up a couple of new T206s and got my signed T202 Snograss encapsulated at the White Plains show this afternoon.

There is an interesting story about this Gassler's card I just received in today's mail for my Sam Rice collection. Last February, I learned that Gasoline Alley Antiques of Seattle, WA, had several Gassler's Bread cards for sale, including a Sam Rice. I contacted them, we agreed a price, and I sent my payment. A few weeks later, Gasoline Alley refunded my payment with the explanation that they cannot find their Gassler's cards - the last time they saw them was when they did a show some weeks earlier - they further explained that if I saw how disorganized their inventory of antiques and collectibles was, I would understand why they couldn't locate the cards - the proprietor promised to let me know when they eventually found the cards, but he did not want to hold my payment indefinitely. Since then, I contacted Gasoline Alley once, during the summer - no luck - they still hadn't found their Gassler's cards. As weeks turned into months, I pretty much lost hope for ever obtaining this card. Then, on December 24th, when I checked my new emails, I had one from Gasoline Alley that reads "Hello Val and Merry Christmas! While cleaning up for our annual Christmas party we found the box with the missing Gassler's Bread cards. We do have the RICE card. We can still honor your offer of $xxx including the insured shipping."
Val


Congrats Val!! Your Sam Rice collection is really coming along!

Sweet Joe D Robby. My guess is this would get at least $700, or more. A pretty well worn raw '39 PB Dimaggio, with a faint pencil signature got nearly $600 recently.

Thanks a lot guys. Appreciate the help. Great card though.I was just wondering a price because I haven't seen any originals signed. Just reprints. But thanks itsjclarke for letting me know about the '39 Playball. That's great to hear

ValKehl 01-19-2015 09:40 AM

Mike, Frank & Derek - Many thanks for the kind words re my latest pickup for my Sam Rice collection. I have been incredibly fortunate to have picked up several very tough Rice cards over the last 12 months or so.

Darrin & Chris - Your spectacular Speakers are special eye candy!

Raymond - I really like your WaJo pickups. But then, I've never seen a WaJo card I didn't like! Be careful - collecting WaJos can become addictive!

Lots of other fabulous pickups this month! The monthly pickup threads have always been and will always be among my absolute favorite threads!

So the wife and I decided to go to probably the largest antique mall in NY and see what we can find for our PCs. After about 3 hours, we realized that we haven't covered not even half the bldg., but it was time to go. So luckily, the ground I did cover I managed to uncover these from a stack of postcards and bottle caps, for a damn good price at that. These are not the actual pics, I am having a hard time trying to do so, so I pulled these from google, mine are raw.

LOL, yes I do know that! I received it yesterday and love it! It looks better in person than my scan shows so I ordered a new scanner (I bought a used one off eBay but it does have CCD technology). I'll post a new scan when the scanner arrives.

I was so excited when the card arrived I showed it to my wife. Amazingly, she said she loved it. I was a bit shocked as she's never said anything about the other cards I have. Funny enough she said, "if it was my card I'd break it out of that plastic thing and get it framed and put it on the wall". She then went on to say she really liked the artwork of the T206 cards. So for me this is some great news to have my wife supporting my new T206 habit!

I'm glad you like it Greg. It's nice to be able to send a card to someone who really appreciates it. Having your wife support your addiction, er, habit, is also a bonus :) Best,

Just received this from the Saco River Auction. This was Lot #1, and for those who followed the auction and who were discouraged by the high first price, I apologize. The pose is one of my favorites and made a nice companion piece to my Coupon Type 2.

I am not nutty enough to attempt a complete back run, but if another high end rarer back shows up, I might be the one running up the price. :D:D:D

Enjoyed the auction and the cards are beautiful. The SGC holders were clean and sparkly with no gasket problem although I did put a 1 inch gash in the holder while removing it from the bubble wrap.

T204 and its a HOFer. I have mixed feelings about the set, but I won't know my true feelings until I get it in hand.

A few months back I sold a large group of cards to a friend. It helped me get some great cards, so it was a success, but I missed some of the cards I sold. I was happy to get my lipstick Lajoie, Sov150 Clarke and blood-stained Burns back over the weekend.
