Collage Collabs by Bonniediva (Illinois, USA) & DVS (me) (New York, USA)

Mail art by IUOMA members Bonniediva (Gurnee, Illinois, USA) & De Villo Sloan (Auburn, New York, USA)

August 24, 2017 - Collage Diva Bonniediva and I joined forces with vintage advertising to produce these two large (8.5 X 11 inches) collages. Bonniediva wrote in a note that came with the pieces: “I love a theme or challenge. I use humor to show some of the terrible ads which targeted women. They border on the surreal! Most of these [Bonniediva’s image contributions] come from a wonderful collection of True Story magazines, 1934…”

From the envelope:

Many thanks to Bonniediva!
