How do you send an autograph request to London, UK from the USA?!

[uk] to [us]

Please help, I'm sending my second EVER autograph request to One Direction!!! I'm only 12 and I want to be a successful autograph collector.

I am sending in:
- a 6x9 envelope
- a 5x7 picture
- a 6x9 SASE

Please help!!! I would appreciate help!!! I purchased USA to UK stamps from the Post Office, but how many should I use... and what do YOU GUYS use when you send letters to the UK?!

Thanks!!

Getting TO the US I can't be much help but on your SASE from the US to the UK you will only need a 1.05 stamp. That is the basic airmail cost from the US to Europe. Since your envelope is well under the large envelope price there is no extra cost.

Good luck.

Oh, sorry: on your SASE you will need UK stamps or an IRC. I can't remember how much stamps you need--check on the collecting help stickie about international postage costs, it will be right under 20 grams I think.

If I recall right, I used three 2nd class stamps and then a couple pence stamps. Maybe an UK member can help with the exact amount.
