Subject: Metallic permanent marker
We recently acquired some posters on lightly coated white paper stock. In addition to the printer ink (likely laser printed), autographs have been added to the poster face in metallic Sharpie (or Sharpie type maker). Has anyone encountered this media? Are there additional/specific deterioration or preservation issues re: metallic makers as opposed to the typical/non-metallic Sharpie/Sharpie-type markers?
