Hi everyone! I really want to get started on collecting but I have no idea how to send my messages to them. How do I need to send the request? And let me know anything else that might help me. THANK YOU

Hello.

Write out a nice, thoughtful letter and remember to include photos for the person to sign. Also remember to included a self-addressed stamped envelope so the person can reply to you. If you have any more questions, let me know.

What do I do for a self-addressed stamped envelope?

It is simply an envelope with your address on it and the correct amount of postage stamps on it so it can get back to you.
Hope that helps!

So for a Self Addressed Envelope, is it just putting the return address on the original or do you have to have an additional envelope with my address as the send address?

[Tabby]

You put your address on it, and include enough postage on it so it can be sent back to you.

You use an additional envelope.
Make sure that both envelope are big enough for the photograph and request letter you are sending.
I also put my address in the letter (top right of the letter) that way if anything happens to my return envelope, they still have my address

When you send them a letter, use a 9x12 manila envelope. Put your letter of request, any pictures you want signed, a cardboard insert to protect the pictures, and your self-addressed stamped envelope in the main 9x12 manila envelope. On the self-addressed stamped envelope, put your name and address in the middle of the envelope and the celebrity's address in the top left hand corner. Make sure that you have put the correct amount of stamps in the top right hand corner to make sure that you get everything back! Also, on both of your envelopes, you should write do not bend so your picture will not be damaged while sending. Feel free to private message (PM) me if you have any more questions or need me to explain something further!
