Increase your chances of getting autographs through the mail by following these rules.
1. Include a self addressed envelope with your letter. (this is almost always a must!)
2.. Try not to send more than two items to get signed.
3. You might want to go for Rookies because they usually sign their first year because they are just happy someone has sent to them.
4. Training camps are the best time for current players.
5. Visit several sites or subscribe to sportcollectors.net to get addresses and to see who is likely to sign your items.
6. If you are afraid that the player thinks you are a dealer, you might want to try asking them to personalize your items so they know for sure you are not.
