On July 5, just under a month ago, I sent a LOR, SASE and baseball card to Wade Boggs at the Tampa address in the database. Quick little bit of background. The card I sent was literally the very first baseball card I ever owned. My grandfather was a huge Red Sox fan and gave it to me, which which was part of a specialty set that could only be found in Maine. Part of what I wrote to Mr. Boggs was about that.
Today, Aug. 4, I received the card back in my envelope not only unsigned, but it had been folded in half. The fact that it was then reinserted into the protective penny sleeve I use whenever I send cards clearly shows that it was done on purpose. I have no idea why anyone would do that, but needless to say, this was a failure.
