I had a similar situation with Stan Musial at a private signing. I sent in an 8x10 handout from his final game I asked to be signed in silver sharpie in the dark area. Well he signed in silver sharpie in a light area and you can barely see it. I was very specific also. The dealer did give me a credit for the autograph but the damage was done. All I can say is that the only way you will be able to get exactly what you want is to take it yourself. And even then if you don't speak quickly enough some signers will just grab it and start signing. Some guys just want to get done.
