A good topic inspired by Claire is "How long have you been collecting autographs?"
I have been collecting since June. Got some nice ones too. ;D

Wicked! I've been collecting autograph for about 2 years. I started off collecting autographs from British celebrities but now I mostly try to collect autographs from American stars. I do still write to some British stars if theres someone whos autograph I really want

I do still write to some British stars if theres someone whos autograph I really want -Claire Its my favorite hobby. I also like the thrill of opening the envlope and seeing a picture. Im not to fond of pre-prints though. I also want to start collecting autographs of deceased stars. So far I only have 1, Mary McCarty. Would you believe I was mailing a letter to John Ritter the day before he died!? I do use Studio Fan Mail, but only if they are a celebrity who would not give me a real photo in the first place. Eventually I will list all my signed photos, I have about 30 or 40 of them...and I hope to have many more soon... I scanned three of my Trapper John,MD autographs on my Trapper John site: hometown.aol.com/junctionyo/TJSIGNEDpage3.htmlI saw that you are in Britain so the American celebrities who awnser you must go through alot of trouble to get to you.

I love opening envelopes as well and seeing what reply I've got...it the best feeling when you get an autograph you really want. I had been meaning to write to John Ritter for ages sadly I never got round to it. Although I was lucky enough to get his autograph through a trade with another collector. I love getting replies from America epecially from celebrities who are in Buffy and Angel. Two of my favourite replies so far have been from Kristine Sutherland (Joyce Summers in Buffy) who signed the trading cards and photo copies I sent and also sent me a nice handwritten note. And Taryn Manning (Actress- CrossRoads) signed the photo I sent, sent me another signed photo and a handwritten note. I also got a very nice handwritten note back from actress Rosario Dawson. It means so much more when celebrities take the time to read your letter and write you a reply. I also dont like getting pre prints but the Studio Fan Mail ones are good quality even though SFM is every autograph collectors worse nightmare! Talk to you soon -Claire

I also (Hawkeye13:"Please do not say you (Hawkeye13:"Please do not say you (Hawkeye13:"Please do not say you HATE anything. Say you "Highly dislike it.") anything. Say you "Highly dislike it.") anything. Say you "Highly dislike it.") getting pre prints but the Studio Fan Mail ones are good quality even though SFM is every autograph collectors worse nightmare! Talk to you soon -Claire I especially like getting handwritten notes. Wendy Schaal and Larry Joe Campbell both sent me very long letters. Have you seen the Buffy movie with Donald Sutherland? Its very good.
