Sal Corrente sent the following:

I have been asked to post this publicly. Effective immediately no autograph requests will be accommodated that are sent to the home of Bruno Sammartino. If any merchandise or memorabilia is sent to the Sammartino home it will be donated to charity.

While Bruno has been very nice over the years and filled many of these requests. I am quite sure many of these requests are coming from professional autograph and memorabilia people. As always when a privilege is abused it is has to be addressed. I can think of no one who went more out of his way for fans over the years than Bruno. The requests come in everyday in multiples something had to be done since being able to distinguish the legitimate requests from the obvious business people like the ones that hang out at airports and force themselves on celebrities and wrestlers avoiding the promoters that are footing the bill for the talent has to stop. I hope that all wrestlers take the same approach as well as the celebrities that I deal with as well.
