Question

Can I send a shirt for them to sign?

Community Answer

You can, but be aware that there is about a 50/50 chance of getting the autograph, so you may never see that shirt again if you send it off. Remember to send adequate postage.

Question

How do I request an autographed photo?

Community Answer

Write the letter, make it personal and do what you want to decorate it and make it nice. Then, at the end of your letter, write something along the lines of, 'Also, could you please autograph the photo I have attached to this letter? It would mean the world to me! You are amazing, and I would love to hear a reply back and get an autograph!'

Question

How do I know what the postage is for the SASE?

Community Answer

Include the same amount of postage on the SASE as you would have when sending the letter. When the letter arrives, if there was not sufficient payment, the post office will ask the receiver, yourself, to pay the rest of the fee.

Question

Can I send multiple items to be signed?

Community Answer

It's best to send one item. If you do have multiple things you want signed, send them separately, a month or two apart.

Question

Is it okay if I asked two autographs?

Community Answer

Sure, that's fine. Tell them the other autograph is for a friend or family member, but don't ask for too many or they'll think you're trying to sell them.
