I have been looking at the successes of some of my favourite celebrities and everyone seems to have such interesting and unique art prints/photos etc to send off, it would appear to me that isn't a case of one particular generic shot which the majority send but there are a multitude of weird and wonderful shots to choose from for most celebrities. The question is, where would I get my hands on such items please? I have looked on amazon and on the internet in general but any pictures I have found available to purchase are already signed and I would much rather have a personalised autograph (and also know for sure that it is legit). My first target is to receive a success from my all-time favourite actor to play the Doctor in Doctor Who; Tom Baker! If anyone knows of any sites or shops where I could purchase non-signed prints of Tom, it would be hugely appreciated! :)
Generally you get the photo you want printed yourself, unless you're lucky enough to find somebody who is selling the prints cheap enough for you to buy and then send.

When printing your own images you need to get used to how big you need the image for the size print you want to avoid any distortion or cropping, so becoming familiar with this first before printing will save you a headache later.

There are various online printers who deliver at reasonable costs, if you're based in the UK you can check out aldiphotos and dscolourlabs for reasonable prices and good results.
