HIS Photo Or MINE?

Unread post by gregg »

If I want to receive an autographed photo what should i do?
Should I just send an 8X10 SASE folded in a small envelope?
Or send my own photo?
Does It make a difference?
Thanx!

I'm no expert or anything, but I'm pretty sure they have their own photos. If you want a specific photo to be autographed you should send the one you want signed. {up}

I've sent 2 9x12 SASE's about a few days ago and havent got a RTS yet. I was sending from US to US. I used 37 cent stamps.

i have used 80 cents to mail out to uk a standard size envolope and i use 2 x 80 cent stamps to mail out 9x11 and the same for them to return it. but this is just me i am not saying thats what it is. mostly depends on weighht. if you look at all the ones rcvd already it costed roughly what i use . in the usa i use a 1.00 stamp each way 9x11 and have never gotten a rts back and my first batch was 5/26/05. so i dont know if this helps or if anyone else does it this way but i rather be safe then sorry u know thanks happy hunting

I agree {up}

I have mailed to the US from England and it costs 47 pence (around 80 cents). I enclose a 60 pence IRC for the return about $1 and I have got stuff back fine.

Gregg-
I would not fold a SASE into a small envelope. Even though it costs more. I would include a 9x12 SASE inside of a 9x12 envelope. That way if the SASE is sitting for awhile and once the picture is put in, it is not curled or bent. But I agree most celebs do have their own photo. If you have a photo of them lying around the house that you would like signed then send that. But I wouldn't stress over not having a photo.

Hope this helps!

Kelly :D

Where do you get your photos then...from a magazine? Otherwise it would be really expensive. Do you even send them to the stars who you know send their own picture?
