Steve Martin Autograph

His "wild and crazy guy" persona notwithstanding, Steve Martin was a thoughtful man who valued his privacy. Irked by obnoxious autograph-seekers, he finally found a simple solution. In lieu of an autograph, Martin would hand out a business card: "This certifies that you have had a personal encounter with me," it read, "and that you found me warm, polite, intelligent and funny."
