I sent Tim a letter and SASE and today I received an 8 by 10 inscribed signed photo in silver Sharpie :D

I'm extremely happy about this success as Tim ends his run on "Spamalot" on Saturday {up}

For those of you who don't know, Tim has appeared in many fantastic movies including "The Rocky Horror Picture Show", "Home Alone 2: Lost In New York", "The Addams Family" and "Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle" :mrgreen:

Thanks alot Fanmail :wink:

Did you send him the picture or did Tim Curry send it to you? I'm such a huge fan of his and quickly sent my letter with a tiny envelope as I wanted to get it there before he left Spamalot.

I'll have to try again with another address.

Wow.. congratulations. I thought you would be too late, but still very lucky. :D

He sent the picture. It is really suprising how much he has aged since all the roles I have seem him in when he had darker hair.

Thanks Zorin, I really wasn't sure if it would make it in time but looks like it did :mrgreen:

are you serious? oh, I am so jealous! I've sent three letter to him (all with SASE and everthing), and I have yet to receive anything back.

I'm quite sad about this

but congrats to you :D

I know most of you would see this as a waste of money, but I sent off a request to Mr Curry this morning. I've been a fan of his for years, and spent the last month or so looking for a decent photo to send (but I see from other people's successes, that he's supplying his own photos, which is quite strange for via venue). As well as wanting an autograph at short notice, I also wanted to test the Royal Mail and their delivery times, so if I get a reply next week, I'll know their service is improving!

Wish me luck {up}

Good luck Keith :D

I received my items back signed from Jonathan Pryce several month after his play ended (I sent Via Venue), so you still definitely have a chance! 8)

I know, but I'll try it anyway. If I don't get anything back, it's only cost me about £1, so no biggie!
