I need some tips

Unread post by TheMailman »

One of my recently received TTM successes was not signed using a permanent pen and is slowly just fading away like a drywipe pen used on a whiteboard. I'm extremely annoyed at this as it is one of my favourite successes :|

Does anyone know what I can do?

I have no clue. My Sarah Jessica Parker success is doing the same.. The signature was perfect when I got it last August now its just a few lines here and there with some of the grey picture in between.

Well this success I got on Wednesday :lol:

It was messed up in the envelope before I even actually took it out. I would write again but I'd feel very stupid asking and it was this specific photograph I wanted him to sign.

Oh well.

How do you feel about laminating it? I am not a fan of it :?

Neither am I but if it would preserve the autograph why not :)

A folder. It's not the plastic sheets. I know for a fact. It was rubbing off before I even put it in one. I did think about laminating it but I'm not so sure. Half of his signature is hardly visible now :roll:

ehh, you should cut a piece of card board paper, and put it like around the signature. then put it in the piece of plastic. This way the autograph isnt touching the plastic, and maybe the signature wont rub off as much.
