Jackie Robinson Auto - 1st East-West MLK Baseball Classic

If the Robinson cut auto is small enough, you can get it authenticated/entombed by PSA/DNA or SGC at their cheap rate. You can justify the authentication to the nay sayers by saying the holder will help preserve the autograph. That the autograph comes with the same occasion ticket and program will raise substantially the value, in part because it places the sig to a specific date and special occasion (can't do that with 99 percent of autographs) and because the ticket and program themselves have value. The ticket and program also are supporting evidence for the lay person that you were in a position to get Jackie's autograph, similar to a Led Zeppelin back stage pass giving credence to someone's claim he met Robert Plant and got his autograph. If you were to sell, I would include your testimonial. Many people would also get a nice photo for the display.
