That is very true. I contacted Ms. York around 2007 or 2008 via her Web site and received a beautiful matted color photograph that she autographed and personalized to me. It's one of my favorites in my collection because I did not expect to get such a wonderful reply. She was very kind to have it packaged so nicely in a huge padded envelope. I will post a pic of the autograph if anyone wishes to see it.
Princess Diana (may she rest in peace) was much more rare when it came to signing, although as you stated she did sign at times. I never got her autograph. I do have a letter from her secretary from around 18 years ago thanking me for writing to the princess.
