Is this a DKult creation?

[Katerina Nikoltsou (MomKat)]

There came a map…from whom? (Sears and Co.?)

So this sticker is in the center of the map postcard, it no longer has a scent:

so even SnookyDoggie might not be able to tell us who sent it?

The flip side has some tape art, (trashpo tape art :-)

but it is not from Pennsylvania PA, oh no!

The map is a give away :-)

"C. and N.W. R.R". = Chicago and NorthWestern RailRoad ...on its way to DeKalb in the old days!

…and especially this: "FOX" (like in the Fox River that flows through Elgin, Illinois?)ha!

Thank you, DK! It had to be YOU!

[Katerina Nikoltsou (MomKat)]

oh, yes, yes, yes,YES! xxx

Coolio!! Thanks Deeks!!!xxx

i'll see if I can find more. This is from the amazing batch of old papers we found from the 40s in an old abandoned box factory.  haven't even delved into them yet but i will send you some Vix!!

The map-side is so feint and old and gorgeous! Do you have any left, DK? I promise not to apply it around my eyes or lips!

[Katerina Nikoltsou (MomKat)]

hee,hee,heee...that is why it is called a "facsimile"...or is it a "fact smile" :-)

[DKeys]

Good advice...it just feels like cheating to me:)

[Katerina Nikoltsou (MomKat)]

I cannot make myself cut-up anything "vintage...even some old TIME magazines from David Stafford.

However...better might be to photocopy a page or two from that Greek kiddie's book,

and cut-n-tear-n-paste for trashpo? That's what I do with many original items, artistamps, etc...

then I still have 'em, and the copied image goes out with mail art :-)

you are welcome!  That map is very old--think from the 1940s. I also have a book written in Greek here-a children's book I picked up a long time ago w you in mind.  I feel bad dismantling it but might have to:)
