Babe Ruth autograph

LINK

Isn't $2,600 a little much for an un-authenticated Ruth auto? I've seen many go for around $1,800 and even less on Lelands. Did this one go for so much because it was signed using a fountain pen? rarer? added appeal?

  • It's a beautiful signature and yes I think the Fountain pen adds a little to the value as well as added eye appeal. That would make one awesome card.

    That's what I was planning on doing with it but it went well past what I was willing to spend.
