I have first class (1st written on them) British stamps. I want to send a SASE for Ewan McGregor. How many of these stamps should I use so the autographed photo can be sent back to a US adress?

Might be easier (and safer) to just put all I've got

Hi James
A first class stamp is 30p not 29p, but I know where you got the 29p price from!
The Royal Mail brought in an incentive this year for people using franking machines. They said that if you "franked" your mail, you could get 1st class for 29p (a massive 1p saving!).
Check out this link to verify:

Hi Class316
Basic postage from the UK to the USA is 47 pence, but to be safe I would go for the next level of postage which is 68p. To cover this you will need to use 3 of your 1st Class Stamps.
Hope this helps!

thanks! 3 stamps it is!
Also, on the SASE should I put in my adress as the return adress as well?

Hi Class316
To be honest, I rarely put an "if undelivered" address, but if you do, you are better off putting your address there too. That way if it does go astray in the postal system you should still get it sent back to you!
