She turned 89 this year, at that age generally people's hands become somewhat arthritic also strokes can become frequent at that age. All of which can significantly effect your handwriting. Still wonderful that she replies to fanmail. Treasure your successes.

She didn't intentionally sign her name that way. It's called old age, which brings on the shakes.

Fanmail 8)

Sent a handwritten LoR, 8"x10" photo, and SASE to the database address (1 West 72nd Street, NY, NY) on 8/15/13, received quickly on 8/26/13.

Such an illustrious icon of film noir, and one of the greatest actresses still living. Fascinating signature as well, she added extra letters to her name so it reads as "Llllaaauurreennnn Bbbaaacccaaaallll." Clever.

It's amusing to collect autographs, and not only amusing, but a smart investment as well. Swift responses also further appreciation of the person you are writing to.

I give you the magnificent Lauren Bacall.
