| Status | Hoax | | Comments | Craig Shelford wanted to be in the record books but we suspect that he and the Make-a-Wish Foundation would really like it if everyone would stop sending them business cards. According to the Make-A-Wish foundation, Craig did have a request, but it was to another foundation. He wanted to receive greeting cards and after receiving 16 million of them by 1990 would like them to stop. He survived the tumor and went to college.
| | Description | Dear Friend:
We have been asked to participate in a request
that a business card be sent to Craig Shelford
at the address shown below. Seven year-old
Craig has a brain tumor and has little time to
live. Craig turned in a wish to the Children's
Make-A-Wish Foundation expressing his desire to
have an entry in the World Book of Records for
the largest collection of business cards received
by one individual. Please take the time to retype
this letter on your letterhead and send it to 20
businesses of your choice to help Craig's
wish come true.
PLEASE DO NOT HESITATE IN YOUR RESPONSE AS TIME
IS OF THE UTMOST IMPORTANCE.
Please send your business card to:
Craig Shelford
C/O Make-A-Wish Foundation
