Best pen for a signature?

16 posts in this topic

I don't have a lot of signature experience. Any tips for a SS newbie.

 

I'm going to have a HG Superman Ali treasury book signed tonight by Neal.

 

I figured a metallic pen due to it being such a rich cover.

 

What is the best pen (one that doesn't bleed through etc.)

Is there an industry standard?

I was thinking of him signing it just above Jimmy Carter's head...

 

Any advice is appreciated.

just an f.y.i CGC will not grade treasury size books

 

yeah, I know that's a bummer.

 

I just want this signed for me. I'll have a video taken of this event.

I just want to get it signed before it's too late.

 

 

do folks use metallic for signatures?

 

 

hm

These are my new favorite SS pens:

 

Sharpie Metallic Fine Point Permanent Markers

Not too fat, and the copper color pops nicely.

 

+1 on the sharpie metallics. I have seen sigs from paint pens chip away after some time. The sharpies seem to hold up really well.

I was going with gold and silver sharpies myself until I accidentally grabbed the bronze instead of gold for a signing. I couldn't believe how much bronze just popped out at you on dark colors. Since that signing gold has been replaced by Bronze Metallic Sharpie.

Congrats on the signature Wally!

 

Has anyone tried these? I've read reviews but curious to know if anyone here has used these and your experience.

Thanks

 

I'm curious myself. I might try out the metallic blue and green on some throw away comics, but if anyone has previous experience with these I'd love to hear. :)
