Mail Art

I started doing mail art via snail mail in the mid 1990s and did end up having to discard some of it in various moves - some I did manage to keep and have uploaded some of it to my flickr page in an album called Mail Art - it can be found at https://www.flickr.com/photos/tishbriz/albums/72157639366339133
