Golden, R&R and Leland's. To name a few.

My opinion on what you will get for the autograph 1500-2000

The market on Ruth auto's has jumped quite a bit. I would be surprised if it's less than $4000 at this point.

Actually, Goldin will make you pay for the full authentication.

And yes, for the most part, a Ruth such as this hasn't been $1500-2000 for about 20 years. There have been a few exceptions, but that's ancient history at this point, so no need to go into detail. I too would put it in the $3500-4000 range.

I have not owned a Ruth for more than twenty years ago. So I was right on the money.

Or auction it here on the BST...

If you try the BST (and if it fails to sell here), I'd contact Al Crisafulli at Love of the Game Auctions. You will be quite happy with their service, attention to detail, low fees and your price realized.

In addition, yours wouldn't be "competing" with dozens of other Ruth examples, as might be the case with Heritage, Lelands and Goldin. Best of luck with the sale and the house... can't imagine being a first-time home buyer in this current market.
