Perfect Thurman Munson auto
 
Just looking for opinions on next steps. I acquired a Thurman Munson autographed photo in a large collection. The auto and photo almost looked too perfect considering it was 50 year old, so I had my doubts about authenticity. Plus it's similar to ones that were mass printed with a printed auto on it. But I could tell it was live ink, so I sent it off to JSA. It passed and the LOA is on it's way! (https://www.spenceloa.com/verify-aut...Number=YY88807)

My question now is: what do I do? I would love to display it alongside my other favorite autos, but I'm wondering if the value here might be enough to justify selling and getting a few other pieces I may want more. If I decided to sell, what is the best move to maximize value? I would think a PSA slab with an auto grade would bump it up a few notches, but would it be enough of a jump to offset the fees (a few hundred dollars)? Maybe do the same but to Beckett instead? Should I just sell it un-encapsulated? Or am I way overthinking this and I should just keep it, frame it, and admire it because it is beautiful? :D

Nobody can answer these questions……but you.

Best Munson signature I’ve ever seen.

Ain't that the truth. I'm just looking for someone else's opinion so that if I do it and regret it, I can just blame it on them instead of myself. ;)

That's my recommendation. Enjoy it!
