If they were printing out those balls like they were his rookie cards... no dollars.

eBay seems to indicate that ones that actually sold went for around $60.

If you have it authenticated, usually not as much as you think it's worth.

I had a baseball autographed by Mickey Mantle,  Later we played baseball with it.

I’m assuming my Ryan klesko would go for like $9 then.

Maybe I’ll hold onto it and track down his grand kid one day. He might want it

We have several Hank Aaron signed baseballs, Mantle, Ty Cobb, others...used to get them signed for $5 a pop. Have no idea how much they’re worth. My brother sold a Michael Jordan signed game ball for $2500 a few years back, though.

I’ve got balls signed by Ted Williams, Carl Yastrzemski, Hank Aaron, and the world champion 1967 St. Louis cardinals.

The basic rule of baseball memorabilia seems to be anything post 1960's is practically worthless.

We played ball with a Baby Ruth signed ball.

The neighbor’s dog destroyed it when the kid that went pro hit it over the fence.

The neighbor was cool enough to trade with a ball signed by the entire Yankees team. As long as I went and talked baseball with him a few times a week.

A Ken Grumpy Jr ball?? Lol. Might be worth something to someone.

My dad is a huge Cubs fan  so I bought him a team signed ball from around 1995.....it wasn't much when I bought it and figured it decreased in value since.

I had one that I got signed by Ozzie Smith his final year. I gave it to my Grandson.

I also have a foul ball that Steve Garvey hit, I caught and he signed at a Braves game in the 70's, around here somewhere.

I've got an authenticated Pete Rose, never priced it but my son in law told me Pete Rose needed money and has spent the last 25 years autographing thousand of balls, oh well, of course I thought maybe my son in law wanted me to sell it to him cheap.

I’d pay $60 for it depending on what type of provenance or cert it’s got with it

I have a baseball signed by Jackie Robinson.

No idea what it is worth, probably nowhere near what it was 20 years ago.

It has tooth marks from where my GSD got a hold of it when I was a kid.

I've still got the baseball signed by my G-Uncle Earle in 1970 (the year he was inducted into the HoF). He was the lead-off batter and center fielder for the 1927 NY Yankees. Don't care what it's worth - I wouldn't sell it for anything.

Jordan worth so much because he rarely signed and never did autograph shows.

My wifes grandfather played for the Pirates (Pep Rambert). Her aunt had a ball signed by Shoeless Joe Jackson and offered it to me but I told her she should give it to one of her grandchildren. It was signed with a number of other players at an old timers game in West Palm Beach. I’m sure it is worth a pretty penny.

I've been into sports memorabilia since I was a kid in the 80's.

Pretty much anything from oh about 1987 + baseball related, 1990+ football and basketball related I close to worthless. Unless it's some special unique game worn this or that.

Pre those dates for those sports can have some value, not much but some, now when you get back to the mid/early 70s for baseball you start seeing more value.

Also signed stuff by dead guys, or guys that didn't whore themselves out can have some value as well.

The mid/late 80's sports memorabilia boom and then later the interwebs/eBay/grading absolutely destroyed it.
