Its your jersey so why ask us? If you want it signed then get it signed. Do what you want not what anyone else wants.

The best thing to do is to do what makes you happy with it. That is the consensus. Some people like to have the items signed while others prefer it not to be signed. So in the end it's really up to you and what you want.

Signatures on jerseys also pose a problem of their own. If you use the wrong kind of pen the auto can fade or blead making the jersey look bad. Another problem is getting the signature and it looks like crap to begin with as players may be in a hurry to get it done and just slap their signature on there.

Me, I go back and forth. I've got lots of hats and jerseys and only two are signed. There are some I would like to have signed at times but will probably never have that done.

Do what makes you happy.

Then I definitely would pass... why waste a good jersey with a crap looking sig.

Do what your own interests tell you to. Either way, if you choose to move it down the road, there will be plenty of buyers whichever approach is taken. I don't believe that either with autograph or without autograph preferences are significantly larger than the other.

If you get it signed, I recommend getting it signed at a paid signing.

Re: Should I Try To Get It Signed

I went through this with a 2014 Tulowitzki Jackie Robinson day jersey. I finally had the chance to have him sign it in Spring Training a year later and decided against it. The nice thing with the #42 jersey is you can usually get a nice photo of the player in the uniform. I searched and found a great Getty image of Tulo making one of his famous side arm throws in the game he wore the jersey. Just had them framed together and came out great. I honestly think I would be disappointed if I had him sign it.

Re: Should I Try To Get It Signed

I'd have him sign a pic of him wearing it during the game or a ticket from that day and frame it with the jersey. I'm not a fan of signed actual pieces.
