I get this question SO OFTEN! Everyone is always asking, always commenting, they always want to know. What are the best pens to use for autographs? What are the best colors?
Today I'm asking the hotly asked question, and I hate to break it to you, but it might be a little more complex than you thought. With all the different types of surfaces that sports memorabilia has, and all the pen options there are out there (ballpoint pen, paint pen, sharpie, etc), there was just never going to be an easy answer.
The good news for you is that I'm breaking it down, item by item. Best pen for footballs? I've got the answer. Baseballs? Answered. I've gone through it all so stick through the whole video to find the answers to your important autograph questions, today, on the Powers Sports Memorabilia Show!

Getting some items signed later this year and somehow missed this video. Got some notes down so I can ask them to use certain pens. Thanks again for the informative videos you do Matt!!

@Yumikos 2 жыл бұрын

Before I go to an event whether that's a signing where athletes/celebs will be then I'll buy something similar to what I want to get signed, so If I want a funko pop I'll buy a couple of $3 pops and test different pens, yeah you spend a bit more money but then I know what will look best and can use that and be happy with my autograph. Its best to trial and error these things rather than meeting your favourite athlete and the signature gets messed up because of the wrong pen.

I know everyone swears by deco paint pens, but I use uni paint pens all the time and they always work great for me. Their standard size I find is the perfect size and fits on most every item. Not too thick, not too thin. And if you’re needing a white paint pen, molotow white is the best white I think.

I've found that if you give someone a large tip paint pen, they sign a larger autograph compared to if you give them a Sharpie. Is there a large Sharpie out there for signing large items like a 18x24 poster or vinyl album cover? The largest non-black Sharpie I've seen are just 'Fine', which isn't that large. Thanks!

Thank you for your insights! I've been a professional athlete on a world level for over 40 years. People are bombarding me to sign T-Shirts and other materials that stretches when signing an autograph. So far, I not found one product that does not pull when using for this purpose. I've spent hours reading and watching videos. I am astounded that no ones mentions any marker that flows over cloth surfaces. The only thing I that come close is a steel rollerball paint marker. IMO, Sharpies are the worse! What are your thoughts?

I've gotten a lot of cards signed with blue sharpie, follows the old rule for signing a letter; blue ink means it's not a xerox lol. Glossy cards, gold paint pen are pretty cool. I met Bill Clinton, told my mom to wear a blue dress and ask Bill to sign it in a White paint pen (we laughed, but we'd never actually do that.)

Great Advice.....Ive had autographed treasures fade away over the years

@nightmeer0820 2 жыл бұрын

Right there with you. I think autograph fading is just something that so many people (especially newer people in the hobby) don’t think about. Can’t tell you how many signed photos or mini helmets I have that were signed in black or blue sharpie that fade after just 3 years or so. Not even in the light, still in UV protection, and under LED as opposed to fluorescent lights. Thats why I personally will never ever get an item signed in black or blue sharpie again. Done with it. Fed up. I’ve sent items off to signings and asked for black paint pen, and if it’s done in black sharpie, I will just straight up try to sell the item most of the time. Paint pens on photos, balls, helmets, you name it. Silver and gold sharpie are fine

I got Dominique Wilkins to sign a jersey over the weekend with a broad tip black deco. The auto looks phenomenal, but after I got it the paint looked to be wet still for awhile. As of right now I have it airing out still because I'm a little scared I might ruin the auto If I try to transfer it to it's display case when It's not dry.

I was wondering what you would use for a matte white helmet? A black prisma paint pen fine tip? Just a thought: should i clip off the tip of the prisma fine point and thereby broaden it a bit as it is thicker at the base?

I cringe when people at baseball games hand a ball and a sharpie to a player. I will say there are times when a player will ask to borrow a fan’s sharpie and go down the line of fans waiting. This happened to me at the ahead of the second game of the Phillies-Mets doubleheader with Nick Castellanos, he signed my ball with a black sharpie he borrowed from a fan just to expedite the process. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Wow you got some really terrific information here. I'm hoping you could help me out. As a public celebrity I am looking for the marker that can be used when signing T-shirts or other type of fabric. Looking for one that works smoothly while signing my autograph. Hopefully it will not wash out.

Typically a sharpie works fine.

in regards to blue pens for baseballs, dont use a cheap pen avoid the free hotel pens or office supply store pens stick to a name brand pen with consistent ink flow and color bic cristal pens are very consistent
