At 5:17pm on February 15, 2013, The Blessed Father said…: If you want any cancelations or rubber stamps I can beat the shit out of their prices, they $39.95 for a custom cancellation. . . Holly Crap. I'll do it for $10 plus postage. I noriced their perforator has a motor, mine is foot operated. Thanks for the info. BF

At 4:13pm on February 15, 2013, The Blessed Father said…: Out of curiosity, how much do you pay for blank perfed sheets????? Maybe I can help defer the cost of my 500 pound perforator. BF

At 3:13pm on February 15, 2013, The Blessed Father said…: I did some triangle stamps a few years ago. The first roll was upside down, next row upright,

next upside down etc etc. USPS did some triangle stamps in the 90's, I copied their layout. I'm lucky to have a local rubber stamp manufacture that lets me use their equipment. They use to offer free classes in stamp making. After I design new artistamps, I make a cancelation to go with. BF

At 2:50pm on February 15, 2013, The Blessed Father said…: We paid $400 for the perforator and an equal amount for shipping from the midwest, shit it must weigh 500 pounds. I like the mini sheets ( I can get 3 or more per sheet), that way I can use a regular envelope. I sometimes use gummed paper sometimes not but always use a gluestick, If you want me to perf some stamps, or if you want perfed blank sheets in a size not available to you, let me know BF

At 3:03am on February 14, 2013, The Blessed Father said…: Received your stamps. . . very cool. I read something you wrote to someone, that you get sheets that are perforated and somehow line them up. How-in-the-hell do you do that? I

have a perforator, maybe we could work something out. How much do you pay for sheets?

Thank you for your friendship and you are most welcome for the valentine. I was not sure if you were part of IOUMA when I received your collage post card; or I would have thanked you more personally.... Thank you for your art! Looking forward to trading more mail..... Great idea about a mail art exhibit!

At 1:21am on February 6, 2013, The Blessed Father said…: Watch your mail box. . . you have a post card + a very rare sheet of stamps coming. BF
