I have found a short piece with an address so you might give it a try and I am not sure how old this is but it won't hurt to give it a shot.

Last, for the die-hard Judson fans, we have the photo, available here, and his publicist also provided a fan-mail address: P.O. Box 2744, Toluca Lake, CA 91610.


Good Luck!

Hey Kathrynloch, I am new here too! I was wondering, do you have an address for Judson Scotts agent Ive been trying to find one. I had one but the letter came back as address unknown. FYI a few years back I met Judson at the Toronto Trek convention. Such a very nice man.

:lol: Thanks everyone.

Okay - the actor is Judson Scott of the very shortlived Phoenix TV series and Star Trek II: Wrath of Khan fame. He's basically dropped off the face of the earth for the past couple of years.

I'll give it a shot and see what happens. Ya don't know if ya don't try!

Now - no laughing hysterically. :mrgreen:

Cheers,
Kat

Yeah that's true. I sent a email to an old comedian who's not very famous any more requesting an autograph for my mums birthday and he sent her a birthday card and a signed picture.

Also, if the person in question really has "retired" and are more or less "not famous" anymore, you're more likely to get a real response than an autopen/stamp. You may still get a preprint but I'd say probably an authentic.

I dont think writing "Personal" on it will ever increase your chances. Either mail is opened by them, or it's not. The probability is that they will open everything (to check it's all suitable etc) and then pass it on.

Thank you! I'm almost embarrassed to say - y'all will probably ask WHO? then laugh hysterically. lol! But before signing up here, I did extensive research and am pretty confident in the address but we'll see.

Good point and very excellent advice. I'll keep trying! Thank you!

Another good point - thank you. I guess the stamp has gone by the wayside.

Thanks so much for the feedback! I really appreciate it!

Cheers,
