Putting aside signed pre-war cards, my order for autographed media is:

1. GPC (where the post office is the original third-party authenticator)
2. 3x5
3. Checks (where the bank is the original third-party authenticator)
4. Mixed paper media (envelopes, cuts)
5. ALS

And I always prefer fountain pen to ballpoint, and ballpoint to sharpie.
