What To Send When Requesting An Autograph

Hobbies : Autographs

I think there is little point in sending a photo yourself, as it is costly, and I believe there no evidence that this increases your chances of getting a signed photo.

The only advantage is that, should it be returned, you have chosen your favourite photo of that person to be personalised. If there's no return, it's just more frustrating.

Now, you need to send a SASE, preferably about 10x8 in size to cover 99% of possible returns. Whilst you may be anxious that what comes back will be protected and not bent out of shape, unfortunately whatever you do, you are unlikely to be able to get away with writing 'PHOTOS ENCLOSED' on the SASE, as this looks arrogant: it implies you are assuming that you will get a reply, and hence some people will make a point of NOT responding to your letter.

If you have cards of some sort, especially relating to sports, then there is no reason why you should not send them.
