He had been sick over the past several years, not months.

Think about this: Considering how sick he was, isn't it surprising that's there's little variation in inked signatures that have been sent out? There should be some hesitation and shakiness, maybe even the signature becoming smaller or more carefully drawn out, rather than a usual fast signature. There has been speculation that he had a secretary fulfill his requests - possibly his wife.

You should be ashamed of yourself. Calling and getting upset over a dying man like that.

Don't get upset the autograph hobby is a tricky thing. You just have to catch them at the right time. I always wanted kim novak but I sent her about 2 years late. What she send now are secretarial . And Gene was great in young Frankenstein.

Are u ok?

Nice comment!

I never send more than two, sometimes I've sent 1 photo and a CD sleeve or a trading card. And I always ask for them to be dedicated if possible.

I personally send only one picture for the celeb to sign but I think 3 or less is okay but it all comes down to who you are sending to and whether or not they are good signers. When it comes to sending out multiple letters to the same person you should only send once. Twice at most but 3 times is overdoing it.

I think it depends on the celeb and how good a signer they are. I almost always send 2 (A headshot and something from a film), and ask them to sign one, or both if they have time. Of all the replies I have received they have all signed both. But some bigger names I would only send one so as to not inconvenience them, and some people are such good signers they will sign everything. I sent 2 photos and 2 dvd covers to Wes Craven and he signed and personalised all of them, AND wrote a thank you note. Just need to judge each case on its merits. Nothing wrong with 3, but for some people it my be pushing it. Sending multiple times a year really is just taking the piss though.
