Need help deciding

So I decided to shift my focus on collecting Hank Aaron cards and memorabilia since Ive always been a huge fan. I plan on buying his RC one of these days, but need help deciding on which one of these three items to purchase to start off my collection. Hank Aaron signed ball, 62 Topps Psa 7, 56 Topps Psa 6?

    I have a ball (as part of a 3,000 hit collection) and I have a PSA 8(oc) 1956 Aaron, which is akin to a PSA 6. Between the two, I think I like the card more. I just really love the '56 set. I am not as much a fan of 1962. All are fine purchases. Whichever you think would make you happiest.

    My preference would be:

    56 Topps Psa 6
    62 Topps Psa 7
    Signed Ball

    I am an autograph guy, but prefer the auto on a card.

    STAY HEALTHY!

    Liquidating my collection for the 3rd and final time. Time for others to enjoy what I have enjoyed over the last several decades. Money could be put to better use.

    I'd say '62, but you can't beat the '61.

    I'd get the auto ball. The supply of those will become finite at some point in the future and prices will rise when he's gone. It is likely the supply of mid-grade '60s Topps cards in PSA plastic will continue to increase in coming years, helping to keep prices from rising to the same degree.
  • Since Aaron is getting up their in age, I'd go with the Signed Ball. When he dies the autograph will increase in value and price, hence buy the ball now.

    Thats my two cents.
