Greg Theberge"A cap - signed or unsigned - will never have the value that a jersey would have."
What???
It all depends on the item. This statement is much too generalized. I can think of a great Harry Hooper cap that I look at every now and then sold in Leland's years ago that I would take over the jersey of the same year.
In regards to the above statements by Tom, the fact of the matter is that the cap DIDN'T get a name placed in it when the ballplayer was playing ball in that cap. Putting it there fifty years later isn't the same thing.
I guess it all depends on how you view historic preservation. It doesn't matter if you're talking sports stuff or other pieces.
