Now that you know who to write to and where to send the letter, it’s time to consider what type of autograph you want to request. Many fans simply ask their favorite player to send a signed photo, but others get more creative with sending their own memorabilia to be signed. One popular example is a ball, which can be shipped inexpensively and will make for a terrific addition to any autograph collection. Some fans also prefer to send blank index cards, t-shirts, trading cards, amateur photos that they have taken of their favorite star or other sports-related memorabilia.
It’s important to note that many players are more than willing to accommodate their fans with autograph requests. It is equally important that, due to time and scheduling, fans be patient with their favorite athlete(s) who are always on the go and receive a lot of fan mail. There is no way to guarantee who will or will not sign autographs, but a kindly worded letter, a SASE and sending one or two items to be signed will greatly increase the chances of success. It’s a good idea to never send more than two items to be autographed and always be polite in your request. Happy collecting!
