... and even if i do get it back signed i can't put it back in the case with the movie because the plastic on the case probably isn't acid or pvc free so i send pictures 99% of the time.

thats an interesting aspect. somebody got experiences with that? Would like to know what happens with the signature when it's 5 or 10 years in a dvd-case...

My signed Trilogy of Terror VHS is a clamshell package; the plastic is very much like what we have nowadays with DVDs, where there is a plastic wraparound shielding the removable cover. The cover insert was signed about 10 years ago and the signature still looks pristine:

I have no problem sending the inserts when they have them because they are often the same as the cover but i rarely send a actual dvd cover because i don't want to end up with a dvd missing its cover if i don't get it back and even if i do get it back signed i can't put it back in the case with the movie because the plastic on the case probably isn't acid or pvc free so i send pictures 99% of the time.

Nothing happens to the covers so why would it be different with marker on it? I have some from 2001 that I put back in the case and they look fine. As with anything if u leave the movies out in direct sunlight the "spine" of the movie can fade but that it.

Only 2 so far but I think i'm going to include DVD covers more often now. Received a Tom Hanks Toy Story VHS cover and a Michael Gambon Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince DVD cover this week!!
