Formula One icon Stirling Moss, who died on Easter Sunday at the age of 90, was renowned for answering all his fan mail personally.
Here is his reply to a request in August 1971 for an autographed photograph, from a young fan in Cape Town named Johan Pretorius.

“JayBee” Pretorius has since been involved in motorsport at Killarney for more three decades and is currently chairman of the Fine Cars section.
He was later privileged to meet his hero; here he is with Moss at the Crankhandle Club in Cape Town in 1991. The astonishingly youthful-looking Moss was 62 years old at the time.
