Babe Ruth autograph question

Our family has an autograph from Babe Ruth. Our late uncle obtained it from the Babe on a fourth of July vacation in 1941. The autograph is on some stationary from the hotel Ruth and my uncle stayed at in New Hampshire. The stationary has the hotel name and date on it along with the Babe's auto.
Question......The autograph is absolutely gem mint except for some bleeding on the Babe's "B". For some reason the ink ran on the bottom of the "B". Being that my late uncle was a Red Sox fan, it only makes sense that the "B" started to bleed, eh ? How much does this effect the monetary value of the signature ? We're never going to sell it, but I was just wondering. TIA

<< <i>sounds like a nice piece - post a scan of it so we can see it >>
It's in my dad's office. It will be willed to me in the future.
I guess it is just supply and demand though , even though there is a great supply , it still does not fill the even greater demand , especially for quality sigs .
