"Yes, Deb, we can only use stamps issued by our own country. Thank you for your message. I'm a little angry about this exorbitant rate, and I'm going to reduce the weight of my shipments and probably the number of shipments I send."

Profile Information

Mail-Artist since:
1980
My Website (without http://):
http://www.facebook.com/pages/Ruud-Janssen/126853977330127
Why I am involved in Mail-Art:
I like communication, art, paper, painting and concepts. The ideal combination for doing Mail-Art. Worked with rubberstamps as a child and started sending out letters as soon as I could write. Discovered that it was called mail-art in 1980. Have been discovering ever since and in the last years also promoting this free cultural exchange.

Dearest Ruud, I haven't sent Mail Art for a while now, if you think my groups are too off topic tell me, and I'll stop posting images, and if you want you can delete them. A fraternal hug. Bruno Cassaglia

Hello,

Not Dutch, but Belgian. I've lived in Tokyo for over 30 years.
