RED mail art envelope arrived from Bonnie in Illinois,
Holiday greetings in March ? ? Many nice "gifts":
even a couple of Easter eggs...ahead of time :-)
And a lovely necklace:
Mail Art does arrive eventually FROM the USA,
but does mail art arrive TO the USA from Greece?
Bonnie never got my "Autumn", October mail art! The address is correct, but it was returned
and I am angry with USPS for slapping a "NIXIE" sticker on it, and taking 5 months to return it????
It is post marked in Greece: "19 October 2020", returned 12 March 2021!
So sad...
Four mailings from October were returned and arrived Friday, 12 March,
me thinks the USPS postal "machine" was reading the BACK with all the rubber stampings?
As there were "postal code stickers" covering the lower part and a yellow NIXIE sticker automatically machine attached on the front...I imagine that there was no human being on staff at the US Postal Service to flip the envelopes on the address side? So they were returned...via slow boat to Greece. sigh.
Solution? No more rubber stamping on my envelopes, in the hope that they will arrive at their destination.
(who knows what will happen to all the mail art I have sent to the USA in Nov., Dec.,Jan.,Feb.???)
Thank you , Bonnie, for all the goodies you send,
so happy they finally arrived!
