I collect Playbills - both signed and unsigned. I had an extra copy of this Playbill from 1960. It's Carol Burnett's first Broadway appearance in "Once Upon a Mattress". Most of my autographs have been obtained by writing requests to the theatre but after reading some of the success stories on here, I decided to take a chance and send this copy to Ms. Burnett. I sent a LOR and a SASE along with the Playbill on 1/12/16. Response received on 2/6/2012. Less than a month, which is what other reports on here have indicated. Not only that but she sent a beautiful note addressed to me on her personal stationary. What a treat to receive this. She is a gracious lady and very kind. This will be one of my favorite items. Thanks to the users on here for helping me figure out how to do this! This won't be the last one, for sure.
Sent to her production company:
