Ive noticed theres a lot of football fans here so I figured I could get a answer here, or at least something. Ill be the first to admit.. Im not really a football fan so I have no idea.
I have a Jerry Rice poster, its a Nike poster thats been professionally framed in glass, some may have seen it. Its "Rice be nimble, Rice be quick..." then theres a picture of Jerry with a foot ball doing a Michael Jordan style jump, football in hand, and in the backround distance between his legs is Candlestick Park.
Its autographed by Jerry Rice with the following... "#80 San Francisco 49ers, Jerry Rice."
How much is something like this worth? Im contimplating selling it. Ebay or something.
BTW I got this as a present from my father when I was really young... he works for Coca Cola and Safeway had a "giveaway" with a bunch of these posters and he scored one of them from his work, and gave it to me. Its a legit autograph.

It's not worth much of anything unless it is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity from Upper Deck or another MAJOR group. Keep it.

I kinda figured that would be the case. Ill have to check the back of it.. I vaguely remember some sort of label on it. Maybe thats it?.?.?
Do you know of anyway to get things authenticated?
Thanks for the help.

I dont really have a need/want to even hang it up. Ive always kept it in the closet.. and I figure with him retiring it might be a good time to sell it, or hang onto it until hes inducted into the hall of fame.
I figure a Football fan would appreciate it more then I am.

just keep it. i met steve young about 11 years ago and had him sign an authentic nfl football. i know it's probably not worth much, but the fact that i actually met him while he filmed a commercial at my friends seafood market is good for memories. it was back in the day when he had that groin injury.

I have collected sports cards and memorabilia for several years now. If this is the poster I am thinking of it's not worth much. This is just a standered poster that was printed in mass quanity. Only plus is that it has been framed. If I had to put a value on it, depending on the frame. Frame=? Poster=$10

Welp.. Ill look at the back and if it has a CofA on it but still cant get at least a couple hundred for it then Ill keep it. I thought it would be worth around that.
Maybe Ill hang it in my office... along with all my other sports autographs. Unfortunately I dont have any CofAs for any of the autographs I have, yet I have a ton of em.
