What makes good mail art?

I was curious as to what others think makes good mail art?

What sort of things do you love receiving?

Does a unique one-off float your boat? Or are multiple prints just as good, if not better?

Do you dig certain a medium? Will collage always be top dog?

Double Standards

Of all the things I have lost in life, I miss my mind the most.

It is supposed to be a free world and everyone is entitled to their opinion and in order to escape prosecution, any comment made must be prefaced with "In My Opinion".

"In My Opinion" There are entities who believe in double standards. An entity attacked me for a simple post on a question relating to political beings but apparently supports others who "allegedly" attack others more venomously.

As a…

Katerina Nikoltsou: The Easter Eggcellent Mail Art

In France church bells fly through the air and deliver chocolates to children.  OK OK, maybe French children are a little more gullible than the bunny children.  Well at least it is not as bad as the ritual whipping of girls in Moravia. (With real homemade whips!) I just never got my head around that Easter custom.…

Erni Bär: Unsigned Havana Club Can

It arrived in a very ingénues envelope of two pieces of cardboard stuck together with envelope pins.

And here it is, Erni's Unsigned Havana Club Can.  Sadly Erni has left the IUOMA website, but even more sad is he didn't sign this can.  I can't put it on e-bay is it…
