Default So...
...the card is in private hands? But photographed by the Hall of Fame for its Cooperstown Collection calendar? Or am I missing something?

How about a signed Baltimore News Ruth if one existed?

Default Barry told me..
Barry told me when he showed me the card [approximately 19 years ago.] that he traded it straight up for a minty-fresh Lajoie card that was in his collection. Obviously this was before professional grading, but Barry was super proud of the signed Lajoie, and he thought it was a huge huge score to trade his nice-conditioned example for this autographed one. Given that it was dated, as well, it seemed extra special to him.

I would love to have a signed OJ. I wouldn't even care who the player was.

Hah - No. I would make that trade in an instant, of course, but it is not likely one that I would ever be offered. Given the increase in interest in signed pre-war cards over the past decade, I think the Lajoie is worth $50K-$75K now, if not more...

Steve-The only signed Old Judge I know of is a signed Connie Mack (on the back). It has a large fountain pen signature which has been authenticated.

The autographed Lajoie is in the Hall of Fame's collection. Barry Halper always thought the Hall of Fame should have this so when it went up for auction again in 2000 he bought it and gave it to them.

Looks like this signed Cy Young cabinet with the same image as his Just So card may be the new king of the mountain or at least a strong challenger for the ultimate signed pre-war card. Link

Honestly, as compared with the Lajoie [and assuming I am owning to own rather than to profit] I'd rather own a signed 1933 Goudey Ruth. The Lajoie has hobby appeal but if it wasn't for the back story of the card itself it would be a minimally interesting signed tribute card. Ruth is the idol against whom every other baseball personality is measured, in and out of the hobby.

Imagine what would a signed Ruth rookie would fetch.
