Georges Simenon has a novel “Il y a encore des noisetiers” (There Are Still Some Hazel Trees), I remember my father reading it when I was little. So looking at this portal in the evenings, I am happy to say: There Are Still Some Hazel Trees, Mail Art is alive!
Actually, that's all I wanted to say today.

Sometimes mail-art artists send each other materials for further use. Dear friends, if You use old photos and postcards in Your collages, I can send You something - old photos of Soviet film actors and stuff like that. Of course, my offer is open to those participants who make collages using "everyday rubbish" in the spirit of Kurt Schwitters and Robert Rauschenberg.
