Phil Collins success! (8/26/19)

Sent: LoR and SASE on 7/30/19 from the US (Minnesota)
Received: pre-signed photo in SASE on 8/26/19

I wrote a letter to Phil’s secretary in which I requested to receive a pre-signed photo (as others on here have in the past), explaining that I understood that he doesn’t have the time to personally sign items he receives and would nonetheless love to get a signed picture being a big fan of the Disney movie Tarzan.

I received the signed photo around a month later. The back of the picture was personalized with my name, address, and was dated August 21st, which was a mice touch (even though it was probably only for the sake of organization).

This is my 3rd ever TTM success, and my 2nd one from the past year. Super happy about this one- can’t wait to put the pic up by my desk!

I hope you're not a stamp collector but Royal Mail just ruined those stamps

Ah, yes, that definitely is a shame (although I've never really gotten into stamp collecting as of yet). I guess there's not really much one could've done about it though, as from what I've seen the PO seems to do that with every stamped package/letter from what I've seen. I don't really know for sure why they do it, but my first guess would be that they do it so people can't reuse the stamps for their own postage.
