I’m fairly new to collecting and want to start sending out respectful and well-prepared autograph requests through the mail. I’ve read the basics, but I’m curious about the nuances—things like ideal letter length, including return postage correctly, and whether a personal touch versus a professional approach works better. I saw an interesting piece on pinup about the importance of presentation and clarity in formal requests, which got me thinking. What’s one piece of advice you wish you knew when you started?
