Mail Received - Ruud Janssen

I was just having a little internal mail art crisis of faith - thinking about what crazy stuff I got myself into here, sending absolutely ridiculous things through the post. Do you ever get that? And then I found this letter from Ruud in my mailbox, with sheets to send in with samples of rubber stamps for his archive.  I have not sent anything to Ruud yet, waiting for the right…

Catherine Petre's long-awaited mail art arrives to great fanfare ...
