Matt,

I am not a fan of the sharpies for a couple reasons.

1) They seem to change color at times vs ball point/fountain pen. I do realize it depends on how you take care of them

2) I feel like I can see the signature better with a ballpoint/fountain pen. The flow, the thiness etc.

Do these points make sense? Plus, I really only collect old/vintage autos so if a sig of say.. maris or mantle existed in a sharpie, that would also entail it was a newer sig.
You collect newer sigs and enjoy the sharpie so to each their own! Hence the thread..we all enjoy different things which is cool!
