so found out that a 3 day show at the end of April here in Cincinnati is going to have johnny bench signing at it. my question is i am thinking about having him sign is 68 rookie card what is everyone's thoughts on this? just curious as weather this will hurt the value of the card?

I think it's cool to have rc signed I wouldn't think it would hurt the value but no pro

Don't know what it would do to the value, but I personally would like a signed Bench rookie.

personally i like the rookie by itself. what i have done is print a picture (usually 5x7 but whatever size floats your boat) of the rookie card and have him sign that. i think it looks better, the auto is bigger and more clear also you can frame it.

i don't think it would look good to have his 68 rookie card auto'd because the card was never meant to be auto'd. i would just leave it as is. people will be like, 'oh, u signed that yourself' if you want a baseball card of bench, there's a bunch of cards that came out within the last year that have his auto. i would just take a picture/bat/jersey/ball and have him sign that.

I'd take a ball or photo. The auto on the card would decrease value, but it's just for you, so who cares?
