What helps preserve autographs that smear?

Post by Childrenfirst »

I have recentley received a lot of authentic autographs from stars who use the silver paint pen or whatever it is that smears when you touch the photo or smears in the envelope before it arrives. What can I use to help it so it does not smear? Thank you! :D

Hi Childrenfirst,
I would recommend a plastic wallet, Usually with most of my requests I put one, as it:

- Stops it from getting battered (The corners)
and - Hopefully stops it from smudging! :lol:

are you talking about once you've received the auto, you'd like it to stay the way it is and not smear?

I've honestly not found a good safe way to preserve these autos. I'll try to find out for you!

Yes, a plastic sleeve is the best choice. Plus, it protects from water damage. You can't go wrong! ;-)
