Hey Daniel, welcome to Fanmail.biz
I think I can help with your questions
1. You should either include an
SAE with up to 2
IRC's or you can supply an
SASE (with US postage on it) along with your letter and request.
2. Sending a photo is not always necessary as many shows and certain cast members have their own publicity promo's to send (always around the size of 8x10).
3. High Quality Lost Season 1, 2 & 3 photo's can be located
here (double click for their entire pixel resolution). Unfortuantely I cannot help you with tracking Heroes promo's but they could be located at any good Heroes forum. Click
here for search results.
4. Gloss is a matter of preference but most celebrities provide 8x10 photo's with either a glossy or matte finish.
Feel free to ask anymore questions and I hope this helped

Hi danielz,
Sending a photo to a celebrity to sign is optional but be forwarned, if you decide to print up your own photo's, the large photo paper sold in stores is usually 8.5x11 so a 9x12 envelope is needed as an SASE.
I advise you to always use a 9x12 envelope as an SASE because it can house all sizes of photo's, some celebrities send 4x6, 5x7's (SFM uses this size a lot), 8x10, 8.5x11, et al. Stephen J. Cannell (he created the TV show called The A-Team) sent me a 8.5x11 autographed picture several months ago, so a 9x12 is the best to use as an SASE.
It is wise to always send an SASE because it increases your chances of getting a reponse back because all the celebrity has to do put an autograph into the envelope & send back because you pay for the postage.
