You will need to keep jersey material tight to get a good signature, run of to a Michaels and get a nidlepoint oval. This way you can tighten the material so it is easy to sign. Also helps with the placement

Yeah, Ive met him at shows and book signings before when I was a kid...he has always been a little short.

I'm hoping that him seeing this Jersey will be a positive experience for him...he was invited back to Crofton when the city celebrated it's centennial 25 years ago...he declined, but sent a warmly worded letter saying that he had great memories of his time in Crofton & the people, yadayadayada...but it was small town America in the mid-50s...I'm sure his experiences weren't 100% welcoming.

Great call on the needlepoint oval!

I would think/hope it would it?

Be sure to let us know how it goes.

Great jersey. Agree... definitely use the needlepoint oval, and have it positioned right where you want Gibson's Sig. A regular blue sharpie is perfect (not a fine tip).

Be sure to post the results here when you return. Eager to see how it turns out.

Best of luck!

I've always had my jerseys signed with a black laundry marker. It won't run in the material like a magic marker. Just my opinion.
