You may use any permanent marker you want. The industry standard for autograph seekers is Sharpie. I have used several different brands; however, personally I prefer Sharpie Fine Point.

Question 2

What is the secret to getting autographs?

Accepted Answer

There are several secrets to getting autographs;
 
#1) Be polite! Nothing is more important than using proper manners.  Call a player over by using "Mr. (Insert Last Name)". Say "please" and "thank you" often!
 
#2) Be prepared. Use The AutoGraph Ball each and every time you go to the field be it Spring Training, Opening Day, regular season or post season. Make sure you have (2) two markers with you. If one marker goes dry or runs out of ink, you have a backup. Before I go to the field, I always check the MLB roster to make sure I have at least one baseball card of each and every player on the roster. 
 
#3) Do not get greedy! Get one signature and move on. Give other fans an opportunity to get an autograph.

Question 3

What is your favorite autograph you have ever collected?

Accepted Answer

My favorite autograph of all time is James "Cool Papa" Bell. Cool Papa was one of the very best players in recorded history of professional baseball. However, he never had the opportunity to compete in Major League Baseball because of the color of his skin. He played Negro League Baseball. Cool Papa literally would have run circles around his white peers in The Major Leagues. He played a total of 25 professional seasons. His professional baseball career began at 19 years old and ended at 43 years old. He had a lifetime batting average of .316 and was fast as lightning.
