| You can reach Hall of Famers by writing c/o The Baseball Hall of Fame, 25 Main Street, Cooperstown, NY 13326. The Hall of Fame will forward your letters directly to the players . . . Some Hall of Famers are better signers than others. For instance, Bobby Doerr is a great signer and replies promptly, while Red Schoendienst rarely signs. In addition, certain players charge fees (Willie Mays charges a $150 donation). If any of this information is incorrect, feel free to e-mail me. | |||||||||||||||||
