Signed US photos...
Note: This catalogue must not be considered
as an official and truth font for prices. It is just a
personal compilation of the few material currently available
on this topic, in which is included the GODE catalogue of
1988. However, this is probably the best information that you
can find on the Net. Any comments concerning the improving of
this section and others are welcome.
Here is a brief list with the prices of
signed photos (on the 8"x10" format) from the first astronauts.
The list is in order of space flight, and the price is both
for an inscribed (ISP) or just signed photo (SP). However, if
the astronaut add something like his/her spaceflight number or
any other large inscription, then you should add around 20% to
the final price. Just like the photo below shows...
 
Inscribed signed photo (on the left) and

Once again, like in the Space Cover
Catalogue, this list that I made was produced according to my
knowledge of the market, and the prices that recently were
detected on the market. There is no "official price list" for
these items, since uncommon inscriptions on the photos or even
the quality of the photo could change the final price of the
item. This list could obviously change very quickly if one of
the more common astronauts stops signing, just like what
happen recently to James Lovell or Alan Shepard (deceased),
raising the price of the material remaining on the market.
