Some Jeter autographs; which is better?

I'm trying to find a nice Jeter; I know the first one is an earlier signature, but which one would be worth getting at around $200-250? The first picture is a bit fuzzy, but the ball is snow white.

Personally, I love Jeter's 1995 and 1996 circa autographs.

The first one shown here is a 1995 circa autograph.

Thanks for your opinion Chris. The first one caught my eye in particular because it's hard to come by these older signatures since the new Steiner ones seem to take up most of the market. I may go for that one once I think it over. The second one also has a nice "full" signature, so tough choice for me; I try to go for the ones where the D is full and not missing part of the loop. Call it crazy, but I think they look better with that detail in particular.

Happy holidays!

You're welcome, Mike.

I own four of Derek's "1996 World Series" signed baseballs with COAs from Scoreboard. I also own four of Derek's "1996 Rookie Of The Year" signed baseballs; the ones that are numbered to "1996."

Nice, classic signature Chris! I hope to obtain one soon, Jeter surely is the new "Mantle autograph" of this era in baseball and will be for many years to come. Thanks for sharing!
