Dale SR. Autograph

keggobelly · 03-30-2008, 05:42 PM

First off I have a Winston 500 Program signed by Dale and Teresa(she is on the cover also) I was wondering if anybody knew what it was worth, the magazine was packed away for years and has some wear but overall good condition. I read that his autos are expensive to get graded but would it be worth it. I got the auto in person at the "Banquet of Champions" when they used to hold it at Pell City. It was the winners of the spring and fall races at Talledega. Any help would be appreciated thanks.

I would only get it graded if you want to sell it. If you are going to keep it in your collection, I wouldn't bother wasting the money. You know the story behind the signatures. If I were to purchase it I always will pay more for something that has been authenticated, rather than something that has not. I believe this theory holds true for 99.9% of autograph collectors.

Thanks I don't think I want to sell it but I would like to protect it from any future damage. Any ideas how to seal up magazine? I know there has to be a way but has anyone done this before?

I'm not sure what the dimensions on your magazine is, but I have seen magazines stored in those hard 8x10 protectors. I would check out a hobby store that deals with comics. They may have something....
