Do agencies keep track on who sends fanmail?

Hello! I was wondering, to agencies keep track of who sends fanmail? I am just wondering because I have some requests I want to resend even though I already received a picture signed from them(the pictures were damaged). If you resend, does it decrease your chances at all of getting a response?
Thanks so much for your help!

I'm not positive, but I wouldn't think that they keep track. Too much extra work. I'd try sending another request. Good luck!

Don't worry too much. I have sent to Sir Ian McKellen, Kate Beckinsale and Dame Maggie Smith twice because they only sign one photograph at a time.
I really wanted two photographs so sent two seperate times. (I try and get one in character and one of them out.)
I had no problems and received both of my photographs autographed from each person.
I hope this helps you

Hey there!
I also once received two pictures of Rosamund Pike back signed, but they were horribly smeared! So I wrote her a new request, told her that the pen she had used unfortunately smeared terribly and received the same pictures back signed with a black pen instead of those nasty gel pens!

Definitely try that again!

Yes, this is true! I have also heard that boxer George Foreman has got a large book in which he writes the names and addresses of the fans he replies to because he hates dealers

But I think this is just an exception to the rule!

First of all, his staff does all this, he just presignes a bunch of pics. It is not too difficult to type an address into a list made on the computer

Concerning George Foreman, this is even featured on Wikipedia!

I'm debating whether or not to do this with Tom Hiddleston. I asked his agency for an extra (pre-signed, so not too much trouble) photo for my friend who moved away for college, but they only sent one. I went ahead and mailed it to her, but I still want one....I'll probably just try again.
