I believe, traditionally the most valuable autographs are William Shakespeare and Julius Cesar. Declaration of Independence signer Button Gwinnett might now be ranked as third. Though not a household name, his signature is ultra rare and completing the Declaration of Independence Signers set is one of the ultimate feats in autograph collecting.
I've told people that I have a first edition copy of the Bible signed by the author, but few laugh at that joke.
