Such beautiful waxy + burnt words + symbols in this little book. The entire work is pure poetry: 

When it arrived a few months ago I wasn't sure who had sent it, and couldn't be online enough to be able to figure it out. Today "Norfolk England" in the members search box tells me that Christopher Skinner sent it. This is the first mail art I've received from Christopher, and what a treasure it is. It's gorgeous not only to look at but to touch. Having seen your work in photos and online, I thank you very much, Christopher, and you will hear from me.

Hello Nancy,

Thank you for your kind words. I'm glad you like my piece. I now take more care to identify myself when I mail out, not that I have been very active over the last 6 months. I have sent out some mail art recently, and hope to be much more regular again (sorry Erni!)

That's gorgeous; I remember you blogging it (and me admiring it).
