May I ask, why do you think signed 8x10s are not heavily collected anymore? Why do you think their prices suck now? Signed photos use to be so cool in the 1980’s. What happened?

The caveat to 8x10s, is 1940s and back. Photos of players from this era and earlier, like Ruth, Gehrig, Cobb etc. etc. are incredibly tough an very valuable. Many photos available are personalized or otherwise not clean. Find straight signed, unpersonalized photos from this time period is very tough. Modern 8x10s tend to be generic and signed in large stacks so they are both cheap and massively overproduced.
