HOF ROMLB Shipping Tips and Collecting
Hey everyone,
I have a dozen baseballs I'd like to ship out to get signed. I have seen folks send them in bags to get signed. Has anyone had issues with them getting smudged or does that mainly happen with Sharpies/markers?
Also here is my list so far
Brooks Robinson
Fergie Jenkins
Ryne Sandberg
Andre Dawson
Wade Boggs
Jim Rice
Rollie Fingers
Goose Gossage
Gaylord Perry
Bobby Doerr
Steve Carlton
Orlando Cepeda
I wan't to get as many HOF'ers as I can and preferably with their HOF inscription. If you all have any you would like to sell feel free to message me.

Most of those guys will sign with pen. Bobby Doerr is 99 years old. I'm not sure if he is still signing or not. I know he was great through the mail. good luck.

Yeah just looked on another site and his signature has gotten bad. He's still cranking them out though :-)

I've never had a problem with smudging when getting a ball signed. I usually pack a padded mailing envelope with the ball (in a sandwich-sized ziploc bag), the pen i want them to use, a LOR, and a pre-addressed and postage paid return envelope (a smaller padded envelope that will fit the ball). I usually tell the recipient to keep the pen. (It helps ensure that the pen doesn;t leak when the ball is on its way back.

Please don't use a sharpie.
