JMHO but Banks was neither the player nor celebrity - for better or worse - that Mays was.

still the card doesnt get more rare cause the guy died...yogi berra was a pretty big celebrity and his card hasnt spiked..but im guessing his autos may have a better chance....

I haven't seen much of a Berra spike. Last June, a signed 1953 Topps Berra that had the crap absolutely beaten out of it went for around $60-70; one in much better shape just closed for $89. He is a very common signature and lived a long and full life, so I don't think there will be a run on all things Yogi like there was when Michael Jackson or Heath Ledger died.

+1 And he was a prolific signer, a close second to Feller. My favorite Feller line is that the rarest Feller card is the one he didn't sign.

Here's my PSA 6 Mays that I picked up last year.
