MrWunderful | 2,927 Posted April 11, 2023 Share Posted April 11, 2023 I wanted a space to post any mail-away hint sheets, for any consoles. I ran into this one and it ended up being a really cool find, it has the self addressed stamped envelope the person sent away for (I believe). It looks like if you called 1-800-USA-SEGA and paid for the hints via the phone charge, you could get a copy of this sent to you. Maybe you could just mail away for it not sure. Im leaving the babbages sticker on because its in great shape and adds to the cool factor (we never had babbages in bay area, to my knowledge). Interesting enough, that PO Box addy is about a mile or two from my house. That whole area has been redone. @acidjaguar gave me the link to the scans of the rest of the SMS hint sheets here: https://segaretro.org/Category:Master_System_US_hint_sheet_scans Post em’ if you got em’! 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acidjaguar | 258 Posted April 11, 2023 Share Posted April 11, 2023 Very cool! I do enjoy finding them still out there, but always be looking at the patina of the paper to make sure they aren't photocopy fresh replicas... I've seen a few floating around over time. Great find @MrWunderful! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captmorgandrinker | 1,650 Administrator · Posted April 11, 2023 Share Posted April 11, 2023 I don't think that's a self-addressed stamped envelope, as most people didn't have access to a postage meter and then the company wouldn't have stamped their return address. I suspect it was the call-in option you mentioned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect it was the call-in option you mentioned. Makes sense. Unless they mailed that self addressed envelope with a separate cost for postage via check or money order The olden days were weird! I wonder if the actual counselor that answered the phone ended up hand writing the envelope and sending it out themselves after they sent it to the mail room or whatever.

austin532 | 467 Posted April 15, 2023 Share Posted April 15, 2023 Don't think so. It's probably buried on Nintendo Age somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
