Question for autograph collectors

CharleyBrown

Would you rather own a signed check or autographed 8x10 of a player?

Why one more so than the other?

It depends.

Modern player -- signed check, because they are rarer and authenticity is less questionable.

For someone who died over 40 years ago, a signed 8x10 or similarly sized photograph, simply because signed photos are very attractive and relatively scarce for that era of player.
