Update on my 7 year olds letter to the Giants from 7/17

larryinnewhaven : 7/29/2014 4:21 pm
I just wanted to give a quick update on my seven-year-old's letters to his favorite giant players from a couple of weeks back. quick summary my boy wrote letters to five of his favorite giants when we arrived home from our vacation on Sunday in the mail pile was a 5 x 7 autographed photo from Eli Manning with a form letter from Eli as well. I wish I knew how to post pictures because the photograph I took of my little guy sums it all up he was just ecstatic. Never expected such a quick reply let alone from Eli who must be inundated with letters all the time. Just figured I'd give a little update cause a lot of people offered great advice in my post and I thank them
That's awesome Larry

If you g to imgur.com you can upload the photo and get a link which you can post here. You don't need to create an account. I'd love to see it

In 1986 I mailed a newspaper photo of joe Morris to the stadium with a self addressed stamped envelope to see what would happen. No note, nothing else. It came back signed.
Kind of stuff you'll never forget...

I remember writing Jerry Grote, and Tom Seaver of the Mets back in 1968 as a 10 year old. Got replies/stamped pictures back and was thrilled.
