Yes, it is unfortunately a common practice. For instance, if shows go to a Black/white playbill, often, for example, with Gypsy: they will ssave the playbill from June of this year, because firstly, Patti has a dress in red, it's in colour, and otherwise they're thrown out for the most part.
With Wicked, they quite possible could have playbills signed with Eden Espinosa for all I know. I saw this cast, and they were pretty good (although Julia Murney is no where near my favourite Elphaba's, Kendra is pretty amazing!)
This also looks in the days where Wicked had just about as many as they could sign. Now a days, you usually get about 6 signuatures, of the main and featured leads.
In another letter, I would really just make sure it's known that you have seen Kerry Ellis and whoever the other Elphaba is, or if you have an extra playbill send that and request it to be signed (It will probably be swaped with one that Ellis signed).
Best of luck!
