Preserving Autographs on Baseballs?

Does anyone know how I can preserve autographs on baseballs? They are just written with a regular black ink pen but I don't want them to fade. Thanks!

Update:

Just an FYI - they autographs aren't worth anything - they just have a special meaning to me so it would be okay to put something on the bal if would help.

    Place the ball in a ball holder, keep out of direct sunlight and when you must handle the actual ball, wear cotton or latex gloves

    just keep them out of the sun. Do not coat the baseball with anything to preserve them, it will take away from the value!

    there are baseball holders you should purchase on line (see decrease than) or at interior reach activities shops I truthfully have mine in those and the autographs look keeping up tremendously lots of course, i could love certainly one of your nolan ryans....
