Joan Fontaine success

Sent a handwritten LoR, 8"x10" photo, and SASE to the database address on 8/13/13, received personalized autograph today in the mail, 9/14/13.
Ms. Fontaine starred in the Hitchcock picture Rebecca, and was perfectly cast in the role of "I," or, the new Mrs. de Winter. The Master of Suspense's adaptation of the story went on to become Best Picture.
Have to say this is a tremendous moment, seeing as Daphne du Maurier's novel is among my most cherished. I keep collecting editions of this novel (and dreaming that I went to Manderley again).
