There are signed CDV's of players in uniform which go back to the 1860's and 1870's which I am sure would qualify as cards to some degree.

I have a signed CDV of the man who started the Union of Morrisania Baseball club which dates to about 1862. Who knows if that counts or not.

If you want to get technical about the earliest signed baseball cards listed in the price guides, there was a complete set of signed Warren Studios cabinets a few years back that hit the block. They were some of the most visually stunning signed pieces around. The Duffy and Mack are the some of the earliest signed cards but they were most likely each signed in the 1940's so the cards are reallt old but not the signatures.
