Yes Rod, agree on that too. I hope these two would consider adding something for the book....

Well mail-art has always been an element of communication art and yet that aspect has been understated so please consider this. Another point to consider is the friendship and solidarity that arises from the act of exchanging our art ideas. I think we already know who are the writers ON mail art, I would think Vittore Baroni and John Held are the most prolific and erudite.

a good thought. Will consider it. Any other suggestions (& other authors) we would need in that book?

you are the IT expert Ruud, please express some of the advantages of the advances in mail-art in relation to technology.

A first set of two books is published. Just a member-list. A next publication with texts and history will take some more time..... Will folow too. As promissed the two books are available for FREE by download. The printed version would just support sending these books to archives and museums.

I think a book would be fantastic. I think members of IUOMA and related art fields would gladly contribute to the cost of making a book. Yet it would be great to figure out a way to make a book free to all, just as our mail art is. I compleatly understand the need for a profit from sales though. I would be happy with either direction taken on the manufacturing of a book, profit or no.
