T206 Tris Speaker sells for a mint.

I think the key to the Speaker is the auto grade 10..This is not the only signed T206 Speaker but it is the only 10 (currently graded)....You might want to get the auto graded on the Cobb or wait a few months when PSA starts putting both the Signature grade and card grade on the same flip.

I am pretty sure that if you asked the bidders at that price point that they were less focused on the quality of the signature and more focused on the difficulty of finding a signed T206 Speaker. I would agree that it is probably not the only one, but there are no other publicly shown ones.

Someone somewhere does have this signed T205, however...

The autograph grade didn't factor into my decision to bid as high as I did. I can tell a strong autograph from a weak one and don't let an arbitrary number influence my feelings. With that said, the Cobb t206 that was shown earlier is not a very strong signature and Cobb autographs on T206s are not as scarce as Speaker. I will be bidding on the Cobb, but I don't expect to win it. I will hold out and pay more for a nicer one. My guess is at least 15 signed Cobb t206s exist. I've never seen another Speaker. That isn't to say another one doesn't exist, but they are certainly rare.
