			I also had some great luck starting in the middle '60's with autographs through the mail.  I sent out dozens of large and small magazine pictures and Jay's 5x7's.  they all came back signed except one.  I received Greenberg, Grove, Sisler, Joe D., Casey, Koufax, Foxx and Dizzy among others.  The only one that didn't respond?  Willie Mays.  I'll get over it.  Maybe. So, I was long on luck, but short on brains. I did not realize that you could actually go to Woolworths and buy different sized envelopes! I just used whatever Mom and Dad had in the house. Consequently, I have a few folds. Last edited by Jerry G; 08-21-2010 at 04:27 PM. |
