Hi :)

In regards to your questions:

1. No, but you should put some cardboard in the envelope to prevent bending. Using a bubble mailer usually causes MORE bending than would an envelope.

2. No. Celebrities have more markers than they would ever need! :lol:
But if you do have a special pen you want them to use, or if you want to have the marker they used to autograph your items as a souvenir, feel free to send one! But in your request letter, make sure to tell them that you sent it for them to use to sign your items, and you would like to have it back as a souvenir.

3. You can download photos and print them yourself from websites such as yahoo.com, google.com, and altavista.com. You can also purchase photos from eBay.

Good luck with your collecting :D

1. you can send a piece of cardboard or on your envelope you can write Please Do Not bend

2. with all the letters celebs have to sign they have a lot of pens. I guess if you wanted to you can send a pen but you might not get it back.

3. you can google pics of them and print them or you can buy a magazine with a picture(s) of the celeb

I would recommend it.

Having it on both the top and bottom protects the photo if the envelope gets wet.
