Another example of "c/o" -- a celebrated author publishes a short story in a magazine, and you want to send fan mail. You could address the envelope:
John Q. Famouswriter
c/o The Editors, Guns & Ammo & Fluffy Bunnies magazine
1234 Pretend St., New York, NY
...and hope that the editorial staff at the magazine will forward your mail to the author. (Far more likely, the mail will go to a secretary at the author's literary agency -- it depends on how famous the writer is).
