Hey guys, I want to send Bobby Doerr a baseball to sign and Lawrence Taylor a football to sign. What is your suggestion for packaging them? I have never sent anything but a picture, letter and SASE before so I have no clue what to do. And also, how would I give them a SASE? Would I just give them the money for the packaging and stamps? All the help is appreciated here.

Please refrain on negative comments like these players won't send me them back signed. I still need the information regardless because I want to try different players, too.

Thanks everyone!!!!

I don't know about a football, but a baseball can be sent in a bubble mailer. Some folks use a box inside another box, but I wouldn't trust that Mr. Doerr or Mr. Taylor would keep packing tape handy. Just use a bigger bubble mailer to fit your ball and bubble envelope SASE.

The nice thing to do is to send Mr. Doerr five or ten bucks. I know he will often sign for free, but it's the nice thing to do. He's pretty much a lock to get an autograph. (You didn't say to refrain from making positive comments.) I don't know Mr. Taylor's habits, but with high end items some players do charge a fee.

Hahah thanks for the help Packrat. I'm going to try that when I send out some more this spring. Now I just need to know how to send a football!
Thanks again!
