<p>Thanks Mim!</p>
<p>I've 'dumped' (though that's not the right word) the various envelopes and post cards I've got recent exhibitions here with my co-organiser. She doesn't want to keep them forever, and asked me what she should do with them? "Give them to the Mairie", I said, "We (sort of) organised the exhibitions for them."</p>
<p>I'm sure Sigean Mairie will be absolutely delighted to get this stuff one day.</p>

<p>The Telephone Box cards are being kept by the TB owners -- but they will lend them to me for my forthcoming L'Art de la Carte Postale Exposition.</p>
<p>By the time that exhibition ends, I'll have gathered something like 2000 bits of Mail Art -- there ain't a tea shop in town big enough to permanently display them.</p>
<p>There ain't a tea shop in town, full stop!</p>

<p>Hello Val,</p>
<p>This is a good question. I just noticed it.</p>
<p>In the case of the Tea mail art call, those pieces were put on permanent display in the tea shop. They're still there.</p>
<p>With Skull Appreciation Day, the 2011 and 2012 are in the Skull-a-day physical archives (storage) The 2013 pieces will remain in Chicago with the curator. These are the ones that I know of personally.</p>

<p>The curator gets to keep it.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Most people don't throw it away.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Some people do throw it away eventually - and some even sell it, though that is usually not something that is appreciated by most mail artists. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Some mail art is recycled and sent out to other mail artists with or without additions/changes/transformations.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>As with all other aspects of mail art, there are many answers to every question. ;)</p>
