A Babe Ruth cut signature, is worth about $2,000.- $3,000. Although a "slabbed" cut signature should sell for a lot more, I only found two "slabbed" signatures selling at a recent auction for $3,107.00, and $2,868.00 Prices will vary based on condition (grade) and the type of authenticity that accompanies the signature. In another recent auctions a Babe Ruth cut signature (not slabbed) sold for $3,107.50.
The signature should be bold, and strong, a weak, and faded signature will sell for less. Most Autographs in Ruth's day was signed with a fountain pen. A signature with the quotation marks around "Babe" typifies his pre-1928 autograph and will sell at a higher value. If the signature is not properly authenticated it could sell at half the market value or less. Signatures will vary in price based on condition, the type of authenticitythat accompanies the signature, the item signed, and how well the item displays the signature. Baseballs are the most common, and preferred by collectors because of it's connection to the game, low cost, availability and it displays the signature well. The signed Baseball represents the average price for a signature, and by deducting or adding from this price for the Item signed accordingly will give you a good idea on value.
The lowest priced signed item would be for a "cut Signature." A cut signature is a signature on a piece of paper, or "cut" from a larger piece. Index cards are the next step up, and both sell at a fraction (about 10%-20%) the price of an autographed baseball. Autograph photos typically sell at about 40-60 percent the price of a baseball with bats, uniform Jersey's and equipment selling at a higher price due to the higher cost of the item, rarity and display.
In general if an autographed baseball is worth $100. the same autograph on a 8 x 10 photo $50. a cut signature $20. on a bat $150. The percentage of the price could also vary based on the popularity of the player, and how sought after the signature is.
In the case of Babe Ruth, his signature is one of the most prized signatures in the hobby. A Babe Ruth single signed baseball in general is worth about $6,000.-$10,000. Cut Signaturesare often cut from an item that has been ruined to save its value such as a cover of a publication, photograph, letter or notebook on which it was originally signed. Cuts are commonly used for inserts by baseball card companies. Slabbed is a term used to describe a professionally graded card or cut signature that has been encapsulated in a sonically sealed holder.
