The Land Unknown

This envelope based on an old sci-fi film is fantastic. I love the way Eric made the address label look like an old movie ticket.

Prince

Great envelope and postcard from Eric.

I'm impressed by how perfectly his shoulders line up with Marianne's.

Prince was a lot different, and his passing was untimely and unexpected. He and his…

Eva sent me this gorgeous stamp scene in response to an aerogramme from the 1990s that I sent her - I love how she even extended the city to the edges of the envelope.

Such a clever idea to use different stamps in this way and connect them with a little bit of added scenery. And the balloon airmail stamps are an awesome accent.…

Christmas at Fiona's

Always fun to receive a package in the mail... this one came with an intriguing Taiwanese customs form.

And even has art on the back (I'm not sure if the words were torn in transit, or if this is as it was sent).…

100 years of DADA

2016 (or 2015, depending on your definition) is the centenary of the birth of DADA.

I attended an exhibit of Noah Purifoy's work titled JUNK DADA. I often use catalogs and promotional material to make my envelopes. This time I grabbed two full museum handouts to create 8 envelopes. I don't usually blog my outgoing mail here, but since it all should have arrived by now, and they are connected, I wanted to show the group…

Thanks for this great piece, William. And as you expected, it took about a week longer to travel than the postcard you sent at the same time.
