Signed baseball advise: Stan Musial, plus

[novakjr]

I think perezfan gave a pretty good rundown of the basics. I personally kinda like the looks of the logo balls, but I believe they are all vinyl. I think out of all my signed balls, I have 1 logo ball, and that's Rick Manning(keep in mind I collect all-time Indians as well as HOFers). The signature has surprisingly held up really well, but I wouldn't take that chance on a bigger name. Everything else is on a MLB, AL, NL or minor league ball, except my Jim Rice that is on an old '70s Leather Dixie ball. If you don't stick with MLB balls, real leather is still the way to go, especially if you're gonna try to get some TTM. There are some decent cheaper leather balls out there, you'd have to check some other forums for more info on which ones are best. Stay away from anything synthetic. Again, for "Big Name Players", your best bet is MLB balls as far as holding value.
