Which pen do you like the best for autograph books? Since I'm a Creative Memories fanatic, I could use the round pen (since it's larger) but a pen that clicks would be much faster when waiting for autographs. I want it to be photo safe too. Any thoughts???

We used the retatable sharpies. They work great adn come and a lot of different colors. Last year I used the sharpies with a cap and it was a pain, the charaters have a hard time getting teh cap off when my son forgot to do it for them. The retractable sharpies were perfect. They are nice and fat for the characters to hold.

I'm a CM fanatic, too, but I wanted to second the Sharpie thing. That is what I used on our last trip. I would definitely get the retractable kind. I used the regular kind, and it was a pain. At the end of one of the days, it was hot and humid, and the lid to the Sharpie swelled (I have no idea how to explain that :rolleyes: ). It wouldn't fit anymore, so I had to be really careful! I think at least 5 characters threw the pen lid across the room because I forgot it was loose! :rotfl:

Oh No! My boys would have thought it was hilarious and would have tried to play football with the characters!! Off to put retractable sharpies on the list of MUST haves for next visit!!! :)

Retractable Sharpies worked great, but might want to consider a piece of cardstock between pages as they tend to bleed through a little bit.

I use mini sharpies! I tie them to my autograph books so they aren't lost! Love 'em!

The retractable sharpies I have are "fine point" and seem pretty thin. Are these the ones you are talking about? I was afraid the characters would have a hard time holding on to them.

Any help would be appreciate - thanks!
