The theme is Bananas & Anna Banana. Many of our members are « bananas » themselves, others are »fruity », a few are « nutty », and one is completely « ape ».
If you are none of these, don’t worry we can help you with specially designed projects and exams for your progress to the banana status you deserve.
We will also explore the many works of Anna Banana as we give appreciation for involvement in Mail Art & "Art".
PS I you are « crackers » or « loony », this group may not be for you.
Also: see link and fill in the form and return it to Anna Banana!
Even though I didn't participate this month (I succeeded in drawing and sending one (1) banana instead of the four I had in mind (which still is not enough compared to the number of participants of This Third Wednesday In April So Banana Day)), Katerina was so kind to surprise me and send this delicious Bananas as Mail Art!
On the back a stamp from her famous stamps 'Greek ... Mail Art' serie:
Banana days are getting more fun every time we play. Thank you all for wonderful banana mail and greetings! This time a great mixture of bananas, everything from Batman, Anna Banana stamp, William Shakespeare, new banana peel, Highland cattle bananas and the original top banana mask.
From upper left corner: TICTAC, Dean, Stripygoose, Katerina, Finnbadger and Tonipoet. Thank you all!

Thanks for the smiles.
What a banana day - thank you Finnbadger, Katerina, Dean, Tonipoet and Carina (TicTic I am watching the letterbox...). The banana pop-up gallery looks like this:
Thanks to Kat (twice! Her February banana arrived the day after her April one), Dean, stripygoose, toni, linda and tic-tac-toe (ptrzia,your banana mail arrived today! ). I think just carina's is still to arrive.
As I knew that my sendind do not arrive to anyone in the Banana Day I decided to wait and celebrate it going to the post office yesterday... so everyone will receive my banana-sending late, but at least it will have been sent on the correct day. Makes sense? Doesn't matter! Every day is banana day!

With the horrid earthquake there,
the bananas at today's farmers' Greek market are from Colombia.
So sad.
