There's Gold in Obama's Autograph
His flashy "Barack Obama" signature or his pert "bo" initials signed by hand are hot in the autograph biz. Some of Sen. Barack Obama's felt-tipped autographs are going for $399. But beware. Because his signature is hurried with big letters and more like NASCAR star Dale Earnhardt Jr.'s than the distinctive John Hancock of Revolutionary fame, it's easy to copy. So the market is being flooded with fakes, autograph sellers tell Whispers.

i have one
i went to his speech in New Mexico the friday before the Feb 5th primaries and was one of the random people picked to sit on stage. and before i went i had this idea that I was going to get a chance to get an autograph so i better be prepared... so i printed out a 3x5 picture of him that i got online and put it in-between two pieces of cardboard to keep it flat and then bothered the secret service until they got the autograph for me

RE how to sell Obama autograph
Ebay! Your best bet is to get it authenticated so bidders feel comfortable buying it. PSA and Global are the most popular companies that do this. They charge about 100.00 so I wouldnt do it if you just have an index card or piece of paper but if its a book you will probably get 400-500 bucks for it. Or sell it to me I will pay you 25.00
