My brother has a Willie Mosconi pool ball set. The lid has a picture of Willie and it's signed but the balls are not. There are no other markings anywhere, such as date, etc. Can anyone tell me what the set might be worth?

Not as much as one would think. Willie's autograph is not very rare. He signed a lot of things when he did exhibitions.

What kind of balls are they? Can you post a picture?

A collector might be interested in obtaining this item, but as far as them being valuable or worth a lot of money, I don't think they are.

That said, though, try to post up a pic. Somebody on here may recognize that ball set and be able to give you a figure amount on their worth. :)
 
Thanks for your reply. I'm new at this, how do I post a picture here?

When you reply to a post on this thread, there is a MANAGE ATTACHMENT button on the bottom. You click that and then you would attach a digital photo, much like you would an e-mail attachment.

The digital photo must not be huge, though. So you may have to reduce the pixels, so to speak. Some digital cameras can create large photo files, but for forums, they cannot be very big. HTH! :)

I used to see him at the BCA show. He signed all kinds of things I could see someone buying a set of balls at the show and stepping over to his table having it signed. It's value is subjective but I have a feeling someone would be willing to pay more then many on here would think. Not a fortune but a fair price. Strangely enough things that are part of a subculture sometimes have more value then the main stream. Case in point I sold an Earl Strickland autograph on ebay for more then I got for a Liberace autograph.
 
Thank you for your input, it's much appreciated. I am posting a picture with the hope that someone can give an idea of value.

Was it signed by hand, or is the signature part of the graphics on the lid of the ball set? Photo above is WAY too small to be helpful.
 
Sorry about the picture, it came from his cellphone and unfortunately he is in MI and we are in FL. It does appear that the signature is part of the graphics and not hand-signed.
