Have you ever wondered when your favorite Star’s birthday is, what kind of present he (or she) would really like to have—and how to make sure it is mailed to a place where he (or she) will positively get it?
Well, wonder no more. Once again, 16 has come to your rescue! Starting this month, and in all the issues of 16 after this, you will find this easy, exclusive All-Star Birthday Address Gift Guide. It will give you the name of the star whose birthday is coming up soon, his (or her) actual birthday, a list of his (or her) clothes’ sizes (all sizes are American—not English, and shirt-sleeve sizes are measured from the back of the neck to the wrist), and ring sizes (all are for left-hand ring finger), the color or colors he (or she) likes best, what kind of presents he (or she) where to mail your present (or card or letter) so that the star you love will get it personally! P.S.: When you send gifts to England, be sure to put a Customs Declaration sticker (you get the stickers free at the post office) on each package and mark it “Unsolicited gift—value less than $10.”
