Scott,
A number of years ago I was just like the dealer; just say no to putting ink (or sharpie) on cards. Now I’m looking for better examples than what I currently have (really need to upgrade a few as well). On my spreadsheet for Brooks’ regular issue cards I have blue ballpoint, black ballpoint, blue sharpie and black sharpie (I really haven’t started the sharpie yet) to track what I have.
I am a tad weird though I’m not crazy about autographs on pictures since I feel it takes away from the shot itself. I have a few signed, but most of them of the common variety.
