Size/Type of Envelopes

Post by cirecia »

Hi! I'm new to this whole collecting thing and I was wondering... what size/type of envelopes do you guys use? And if you included a SASE, how big was that? Sorry, I'm really new to this.

I like to use just a standard "letter" style envelope- it makes postage cheaper! :D :lol:

Celebrities send many different size photos. The largest I have seen is an 8X10 photo, so to be on the safe side, your SASE needs to be at least that big. I use 9X12 envelopes as my SASE and fold it to put it (SASE and letter TO celebrity) in a 6X9 (which is the size I use to send smaller photos--both 4X6 and 5X7 fit in it).

Hope this helps! {up}

I use a 9x12 with a 8x10 sase inside, if you want you can send an 8x10 and fold your 8x10 sase on the inside, its all up to you
