Mail art from John Held, Jr. back from HOT Japan

Yes, John was there in Japan...when record high temps were blazin'...very HOT!

It must have been a great exhibit however , honoring Shozo Shimamoto.

(me liking the map fragment in Japanese!!!)

And look at the details of the flyer:

Who might be all these famous heroes of Gutai? And the date of the photo?

Then there are these photos, described in Japanese...wondering who and where? It is 1967.

Intrigued by this special document, John, 'must do some research about the group.

Thank you, John...
