population and value bump of auto pre war cards

The pool of prewar cards signed is definitely limited. Among the HOFers DiMaggio, Appling, Gehringer, Herman, Hubbell and Terry are all pretty readily acquired on prewar cards, as all were active signers late into long lives that carried into the autograph era. Feller is darn near worthless; I think he's gonna be buried with his hand clutching a pen above the ground. Others are quite hard to find. REA had a lot of 4 exhibits signed by Young, Speaker, Cobb and Alexander that sold for an (appropriately) sky high price. |

Autographed Goudeys and Play Balls are not rare. Autographed T206s and similar E cards are rare. The rarity and value of the player's signature in general effects value, with most T206 players being in genral limited. Greenberg and Wait Hoyt are amongst a few HOFers that are rather plentiful on Pre-War card. T206s signed by Cobb, Frank Chance and Eddie Cicotte exist but are rare. Condition of signature and overall presentation of card effects price. Most Pre-War signed cards are in lower grade ... There is a strong and increasing market for signed Pre-War cards. |

i am assuming there is a negative correlation between amount signed and year. ive seen a fair amount of goudey signatures (i have a few myself)...and quite a few 1920's exhibits...but hardly see anything else. those t206's that were posted in the thread of auto pre war cards were a sight for sore eyes...i have seen only one auto t206 in my short time in pre war collecting. |

Marquard was a pretty prolific card signer and generally his T206 is one of the few you see (legitimate ones that is). I had my heart broken on a PSA cert M116 Joe Wood which was signed, but that's the only M116 auto. I have seen. |

Most of the cards were signed after the players retired. As one would expect, Goudey players lived much later than T206 players and, thus, there are more signed Goudeys than T206s. |

Surely there is a positive correlation between the number of cards signed and the year. |

...because I have four autographed Marquard T206 cards and one T206 Snograss With Bat autographed card. This week I traded for the Paddy Livingston T206 card with autograph and have sent it in to JSA/SGC for grading/authentication. |

I picked up the Snodgrass a few weeks ago for a little of $200 on ebay. The Marquard was somewhere in the $150 range a few years back. |
