At 11:44pm on November 16, 2015, Carmela Rizzuto said…: Greetings John--so glad that the book arrived safely. Thanks so much for the booklet of your collages and poetry--I was very touched by your gift. The 'zine will go up on my Galleria Refrigeratoria for perusing on my tea breaks-a reminder that we are never too old to learn and have fun!

At 12:40am on November 6, 2015, Carmela Rizzuto said…: John--the book, Vispoeologee, is in the mail and should arrive in a few days. Look for a priority mail box--it's a bit of overkill, but I wanted to assure that it arrived in pristine condition.

At 8:46pm on November 4, 2015, Carmela Rizzuto said…: That's great, John. I'll send it off within a week and alert you to its arrival.

PS: It's a marvelous book and I'm glad that it will have a new and appreciative home.

At 7:25pm on November 4, 2015, Carmela Rizzuto said…: Dear John

I have a hand-bound book that you edited called, Vispoeologee, Minnesota Center for the Book (No.103/225). I am de-accessioning my small book collection and thought that you might either want the book, or would have an idea of a person, or organization to which I might donate it. This would be a free gift to a good home.

Glad for the success

At 6:50pm on June 18, 2015, Mail Art Martha said…: You go to the link below and click Share and have to log in. Then click on Download ( very pale) and that accesses the original pdf. Good luck this time.

At 7:56pm on June 16, 2015, Mail Art Martha said…: I had to degrade the pdf or it would not fit here. In Issuu it is hidden in the button that says Share, they have changed a lot and it is more obscure I agree.

At 5:13pm on June 9, 2015, Mail Art Martha said…: The full pdf is too large but I will cut it so it may work, we'll see

may%20show.pdf

It is frightfully degraded but it gives you an idea, pity you cannot open the Issuu version it is a very pretty thing how the pages turn and the quality is better. also it shows all the work from January to today. Try to get somebody else to open it in another computer, an eight years old kid dor preference, hee hee.
