Sent rookie card in toploader, short note and SASE to Steve Garvey at:
c/o Los Angeles Dodgers
1000 Elysian Park Ave
Los Angeles, CA 90012
Sent on April 1st, 2011. Received back on May 12th, 2011. Rookie card was signed with blue sharpie; came back with toploader but the card was not in it. Miracuously the card was undamaged. Mr. Garvey also included a handwritten note in ballpoint on Dodgers stationary that read (as best as I can make out):
Hi, Thank you for your interest in my career. Would you like to donate to my foundation "Youth Baseball in Palm Desert?" Thank you, Steve Garvey.
All this was in my SASE, which was not sealed and had a big tear in the back of it. The note is autographed as well. It had an address on it too:
Steve Garvey
74923 Hwy 111
Indian Wells, CA 92210
Mr. Garvey used this as the return address on my SASE. Dodgers.com was also printed on the note. I did not send any money originally but I will make a donation now, although he did not give any directions on how to do so. Maybe I will just send a check to the Indian Wells address. SASE was postmarked San Bernandino, CA on May 10th. This is the greatest success I have had so far. I will post scans soon.
Steve Garvey huge success! (Los Angeles Dodgers)
