Hi, first time poster here, thanks for having me, and thanks in advance for any help. I am not a collector, but was blessed to have The Greatest of All Time visit my house when I was younger and sign two copies of of the book "Muhammad Ali, A Thirty Year Journey". I feel bad this being right after his passing, but I can't help but wonder what they are worth?
The attached pics kind of show what we're working with. One book is signed 6 times, the other a whopping 38 times. Each book has 1 personalized signature. On a blank page in the book with 38 signatures there is a really cool drawing of a little boxing ring, a boxer, and a heart, signed "Muhammad Ali, The Greatest of All Time" (see attached picture) and I'm thinking this drawing from the champ alone could be worth quite a bit.
So can anybody help me out with a ballpark figure of what these books are worth?
Would I be better off framing each signed page and selling them individually?
What's the best way to sell something like this? Go through a dealer? Internet?
Is there verification service people recommend? I have pictures of him signing the books in my home with my dad, as well as a picture with me and hope it will be pretty simple
Thanks for any help you can give. I know I'm really blessed to have these books and really appreciate the knowledgeable community here helping me out.

I just saw a Muhammad Ali signed scrapbook signed 5 times (although with much better inscriptions) for ~$2,100. I would value the one with 6 signatures below that one. Maybe around the $1,000-$1,500 mark, with you possibly getting the higher end of that range now before some of this "hype" goes down.
The 38 signature book is very unique, would need to see the type of autographs it has to really try to determine a value, but if you're looking to sell let me know :)
are you going to make cuts out of them, Mike? :)
Honestly, it depends on how they look. Would be very interested in backing up what I seem to have become known for though ;)
wwwaliautos might offer a quick opinion
