Default Auto on a Wax pack

Kind of an odd question but just want to get some opinions. Has anyone ever had an autograph on a wax pack? Did it hold the signature? The only item i have for a player doing a signing tomorrow is a wax pack so I am hoping it is possible.
Thanks for any help!

I can't imagine that any ink pen/sharpie would adhere well to a wax pack. That is if it's in fact a 'wax' pack. My suggestion would be to lose the pack altogether and go with a simple blank index card. I've been in a bind myself in your situation and that has always seemed to work out for me. They work great for matting with a photo or simply as is. Either way, good luck and let us know how it goes.

Default Meadowlark Lemon

The signature is Meadowlark Lemon--the only item of memorabilia I have is a 1972 Fleer Wax Pack of the Harlem Globetrotters.

Thanks for the inputs and that is what i thought about a wax pack. I will try to index card and then perhaps buy some memorabilia to go with it. Although if I get a chance to get a 2nd auto I will try it on the wax pack as i am very curious as to how it comes out!

Thanks for replies and i will post a pic once i get the auto...

I believe a regular sharpie will work on a wax pack. If you must use the wax pack, I would suggest testing it out on something of the same material.

You might also want to try a paint pen.
They flow a bit more freely than a sharpie and that may prove a bit better on a wax pack. They cost a little more that a sharpie but when "primed" properly they give a nice appearance.
