I have 4 Ayrton Senna autographs, two are on the Montreal Grand Prix Race Programs, one is on a Racing Card, and the other is on the yearly review book for 1991. Does anyone know if these have any value?? Just wondering !!

ANYTHING with Ayrton Senna's name written on it is worth at least something.Several factors will determine their value; condition of the items that were signed (are the programs dog earred, covered in dog pee? Are the autographs readable or smudged or in some other way unclear?) You will also have to be able to prove "provenance" if you want top dollar.

I was down at a place called Collector's Studio in Toronto, and they had a Italian GP poster signed by Alesi, Senna, Hakkinen and I think Brundle, and they wanted something like $2000.00 (Cdn) for it. Mind you they are famous for being $$$$$$. There is a book you can buy that tells you approximate worth of Grand Prix memorabilia, available at Chapters Bookstores.... Next time I'm in the store I'll try to look for it, and A) tell you the full name of the book, and B) see if there is a section for autographs... If this thread is no longer open I'll post this information under a new heading entitled "Senna stuff"

Hello Bruce,

I would like to thank you for the info you gave me about the Senna autografs. They are in mint condition, and the book, programe, and cards are like new, the autografs are perfectly readable. As for proof I used to work at Porto Fino in Montreal, and Senna would eat there every Friday before the race. I have pictures with him, and all the staff at Porto Fino. Once again thanks for the info.

Just checked at Chapters. The book I was referring to is called Miller's Collectible Car's or something like that. It actually had way less memorabilia prices than I had remembered, but it did have prices on a Senna-autographed book (£175) and a photograph ( I think taken by a recognized photog) at £600 (!) Hope this helps...

Are you selling these things? I might be interested in the signed yearly review.....
