Songwriter, Satirist, Mathematician
CD booklet and photo signed in black sharpie by Tom Lehrer. I was first introduced to Mr. Lehrer's music by a friend of mine while I was in college and, while I don't listen to him every day, his songs remain some of my favorites. I have three of his albums, as well as his published songbook.
Tom Baker
Actor
I've said it before and I'll say it again, I love Tom Baker. I grew up watching him on Doctor Who and, while I love Matt Smith in the role, there will never be another Doctor like Doctor #4. I previously bought two Tom Baker autographs (here and here), but decided to write to Mr. Baker anyway. I sent him the picture with the daleks and the cover of my copy of City of Death. Imagine my surprise when I opened up the envelope and saw the third photo in there!
Naturalist
5x7 color photo of famed naturalist Sir David Attenborough signed in black pen. I'm a relative newcomer when it comes to Mr. Attenborough's work, having been first exposed to him through Planet Earth. Since then I've seen most of the BBC Earth documentaries he narrates, as well as some of his earlier documentaries. Now I'm a big fan of Mr. Attenborough's work.
Actor
8x10 of Adam West signed in blue sharpie. I grew up watching reruns of the 1960s Batman at my grandmother's house. The tear on the right is thanks to my mother, who thought that it was junk mail when it came in and tried to rip it in half. I'm planning to find another photo and write to Mr. West again so that I can have an undamaged photo to display.
