Mim Golub Scalin

Blue Lady in Tiny Town arrived today in Greece! Thank you, thank you,Mim. going to blog it with other mail art...it went up on my little easel for blue-mouse to appreciate. He loooooves it, too! xx

Thank you Mim for the wonderful mail I received today!   It's magical and timely.

It is lovely, Mim.  Old negatives and photos just begging for a new home.  Thanks for sending it to me.  <3

Glad you got it! Gotij!

#329 arrived in Greece today, Mim! Yay! Me got one of your great "split-photos" designs. I like all of them and this one is my favorite! Many thanks xx

Bonjour Mim!

Just a short note to say Merci for the nice envelope that arrived yesterday AND all the stamps that were in it -- they're always appreciated (and, who knows, may one day wend their way back to you).

I've given up collecting banana labels, and  will be sending Dean's banana bingo xard to Anna as a Fruit Salad Contribution -- ie it has lots of fruit labels/stickers on it, but they're not all bananas.

I'm sure that Dean won't be offended -- after all when has he ever followed the 'rules' that the rest of us have tried to lay on him?

I'll be mailing you something back before the week is out.

Best wishes, Val

Mim: I would like to share with you information received from my friend in Argentina about the local Embassy of the Imperial Republic of Goluband.  I would prefer to send e message to your private @ddress.  Use celestialscribe@unipaz.pro.br.  Patricio

Mim,  have you sent a SECREt to the Tell Me Tell Me exhibition at MoCA in Korea?

Hi Mim! I just received yoour card!!! Thank you!!!!

Thank you, thank you, Mim! It's not red Klee sky :-( but it is wonderful Tiny Town!

#349 of 365...getting close to the final countdown! Wow!

Mim, thank you very much for the great Tiny Town card!

Newt.... 1001 Nights?

One piece of mail art made and/or sent for 1001 nights...now that'll keep you going for a while!

Regards, Val

Thanks Mim!

When you've gotten to the end of 1001 nights, then, of course, I have another idea for you.

I won't tell you all the details, but just hint that it involves you buying a submarine, going a long way under the sea and has the number 20,000 associated with it. It's not possible to start this project yet as US Post has not yet got it's Underwater Post Box Programme (note English spelling) funded by Congress yet.

Liberté, Fraternité et une tasse de thé from that nice little thé shop that your frined runs in Richmond.

It's here, it's here, it's here! xxx thank you, sweetie! # 355 of 365 arrived in Greece this great Monday Mail Art Day! That's when you had 10-to-goooo! And it is exactly the Tiny Town that I wished to have! Oh, I just love it,Mim!

And now that we have completed our "365", I am all for 1001 Nights! (but not blogging at blogger...just making and numbering and sending ;-) You should be receiving my #366 soon?

Thanks for Red Klee Sky! xxx ('will blog soon with others)

Mim, Thanks you so much for the packet of goodies that you sent me! I will put them to good use, I love that some of them were already cut out. You have been inspiring to watch this year. Thanks again Laura

I am honored to receive one of your #365 landscape paintings, girl! xxx

Congratulations on a spectacular finish to completing 365. And the painting is awesome!

Will blog, and post at "365' too! Hope my #366 arrives in Richmond, soon?

Thank you so much for the altered card! And thanks for the book suggestion, that sounds great!

Thank you so much for the wonderful package of supplies. I love them. <3

Whahoo, Mim! So you received my mail art, and today, I received yours! Thank you...what a great envelope, too. We are "makers"! Yours is very asemic! FAB!

Actually, it is visual poetry! xx

Gotij! Your hand-made envelope arrived today with a "tag" ornament for my Christmas tree and also many other wonderful treasures. You spoil me with gifts! Thank you, sweetie, xxx

Wishing you a Merry Christmas!

Hi Mim! Thanks for the altered de Kooning-influenced pipe. It reminded me of René Magritte's "The Treatchery of images" painting of a pipe, and the caption 'Ceci n'est pas une pipe'.

I'll mail you something in the New Year to your new Paris address, so that you'll start to begin Mail Art in your new country;

Thanks again, and bestest, Val

Happy Holidays...and happy packing for the trip to Paris! xxx

Bonjour! I don't think you're crabby at all -- quite the opposite. My sign is Libra, and you will by now be only too well aware as to how balanced I am. Or was. Or might be. Or think about being. Oh, bother -- the scale on the weighing machine isn't working, so I'm not balanced at all.

Hope your preparations pour votre visite ici are going well.

Bestest, Val 

xxx Beautiful watercolor MIMimal card arrived today! Lovely, Mim, thank you and expect something from Greece when you arrive in Paris!

(also posted this at "Holiday" group )

Dear Mim,

Thanks for your mail art.

I love all the little details, the stamps and prints.

Thank you so much!

Have a wonderful time in Paris!

greetings Emmy

Happy Creative New Year 2012, Mim, and greetings to Chuck, too.

"KALO TAXIDI" as you fly to Paris xxxx

mim recibí tu afectuoso cariño y pronta recuperación hacia mi mamá, en tu fantástico arte correo, quería agradecerte tanto amor. Realmente me hace feliz recibir tu mail art. Abrazos desde Argentina.

Bonjour again! If you search for Paris based Mail Artists here, you find a dozen...of which I only know Dean. You and/or he might know others (including Chaponnerie, whose taste in headgear is as bizarre as mine), and might want to inlude theim in the reunion -- which doesn't have a date yet, right?

Regards, Val

Gaaa leeee' aaa = ΓΑΛΛΙΑ

(Greek name for the country you are presenting residing in...lucky you!

Thank you, sweetie, for ALL the fun tidbits that arrived from Paris ;-)

Making...making...'Glad you are settled nicely "at home" in Paris.

Much, much mail art to you...and Chuck, too! :-)

Yes! Exactly, Mim, you got it! 

ΓΑΛΛΙΑ = Gaul, the ancient name of France!

So, let's see if I will be able to travel to Γαλλία in February??? Hope so.

You two have a great time...cafes, galleries, art shops! xxx

Hi Mim,

Thanks for your card !

http://insomniesetartpostal.blogspot.com/2012/01/recu-de-mim-golub-...

Nonjour Mim! I hope that you and Chuck are enjoying Gay Paree; Thanks for the latest card. I'll try to remember to bring it to Paris to claim my free glass of wine,as promised. If I photocopy it, say 10 times, can I claim 10 glasses?

I'm going to the UK at the end of the week, but will mail you something before then.

Hope to see you next month.

Bestest, Val

Thank you, thank you, Mim! Merci! What a great card! And with embroidery from Poland...my ancestors are from Poland ;-) Love this1 and Bravo! you are already to #800...and beyond! I just sent out #570.

Hi Mim,

Mona arrived on Utopia !

Thanks.

http://galeriedesmona.blogspot.com/

Yes, yes,...Mona has arrived in Greece, too!

Thank you soooo much, must post this at Cheryl's blog for Mona Lisa.

(And little blue mouse just loves it! Me, too! xx)

Thanks, Mim, your lovely Mona showing her needlework arrived in the Netherlands.

She will have a great time with us, because I have so much to repair for her!

Enjoy the rest of your stay in Paris!

Bonsoir!

Un, how are you enjoying Paris?

Dos, did Chuck get my KLM-inspired piece?

Drie, when are we going to the Postal Museum?

Quattor -- Suzi or an Audi?

LuVVaL

Bon jour! Sorry about the postage -- I stamp everything, but the stamp in question must have gone walkabout, as the Australians say. Expensive -- moi? You ain't seen nothin' yet. Quattro? In the 70's there was a Glam Rock band led by a leather-clad blonde bass player called Suzi Quattro (sort of a musical Marianne Faithful 'Girl on a Motor Cycle' with a Fender rather than a large motor bike). The German car manufacturer Audi introduced an innovative 4-wheel drive system for cars about the same time  and called it the 'Quattro': it's still there on many of their current models.

Simple really. Regards, John (without the Other Three -- Chuck will explain, or not) and Carla (Nicolas will explain).

Yay! Happy to hear that Mim is getting some mail art, too...(not all going to Chuck ;-)

I do enjoy visiting your blog, Mim! It seems that the Guggenheim Museum is VERY impressive...so glad you two had a chance to get there. Now if only this weather would warm up a bit so we can ALL enjoy Paris...see you soon!

Funny -- I just saw this comment and wanted to tell you that I kept shaking the card back and forth before I sent it to you!  There's just something about fringe!  I've been seeing references to Noah's book everywhere lately.  I hope it stays in print for a long time, because people will continue to find it and want it.

Got your card on Friday! Thanks a lot!!!! Enjoy Paris for me ;)

Hi Mim!

Thanks for the friendship!

Paris is very nice and we Brazilians seem to be everywhere! But we are nice people :)
