Ken Griffey Jr. Signs Exclusive Autograph Deal with TriStar Productions
Even in retirement, Ken Griffey Jr. remains one of the most popular players in the hobby. The Hall of Famer has signed a new exclusive autograph deal with TriStar Productions.
Under the agreement, all of Griffey’s autograph signings will be handled by the Houston-based company.
“It is humbling to be chosen as the exclusive memorabilia company by someone who I watched in awe play the game of baseball with such grace and power,” said Jeffrey Rosenberg, TriStar President and CEO.
TriStar did a signing earlier this month with Griffey. According to TriStar, it was the first time the Mariners legend used a Hall of Fame inscription.
A wide variety of signed Ken Griffey Jr. memorabilia is already available on the TriStar website. Prices start at $249.99 for a signed Hall of Fame logo baseball or postcard. Autographed photos, jerseys and bats can also be purchased. All of the Griffey items come with an individually numbered hologram to ensure their authenticity.
TriStar has been busy adding exclusives to their roster. The company also recently signed Justin Verlander to a deal.

I always wonder about this … how does that work with signing cards for the card companies? Is that a separate thing, or does he sign Panini/Topps?Upper Deck stuff at the TriStar office or something?
@RJC It shouldn’t make a difference. Several players have exclusives but still sign cards (like Derek Jeter who has an exclusive with Steiner).
When will Ken Griffey Jr sign autographs again?
@Mark — You’d need to check with Tristar to see what the signing schedule is.
Any indication that Griffey Jr. will sign for the public in the near future. Thank you
@Rodney — Nothing has been announced.
Is ken griffery jr every having a public signing?
@Tyrone – None have been announced. You’d need to check in with TriStar for any potential signings.
John Jaha but why?! Email me why lol
@Nate – Back in the day he was an affordable slugger. I have tendencies to be a completist so my other favorites like Belle, Griffey and Piazza were impossible to chase in that regard. And, to be honest, the fact that “John Jaha” rolls off the tongue easily probably played a small part as well.
