Comment by Keith S. Chambers on October 23, 2014 at 8:48pm: From Ruud Janssen:

I always think of Ruud as one of the busiest guys around, so when he has the time to send something my way, I am always pleased. When he takes the time to get out the paints to adorn the envelope, it's extra special. Thanks Rudd!

Comment by Keith S. Chambers on October 23, 2014 at 8:44pm: Richard Baudet sent this lovely envelope.

Richard addressed and posted the other side of this envelope, but this, the back panel, was the icing on the cake. This was the first piece Richard has sent me, so I am excited to open it up and see what awaits for the recipient.

Comment by Keith S. Chambers on October 23, 2014 at 8:41pm: This one was sent to me by Rebecca Guyver:

Okay, so this envelope is clear and doesn't have much on it other than a stamp [2.15!] and an air mail sticker. However, showing what is inside and the embroidered name on the address label [I love that] provides every bit of eye candy as though it was on the envelope itself.

Comment by Keith S. Chambers on October 23, 2014 at 8:36pm: From Vizma Bruns:

It looks like this came from Japan. Vizma abroad. Fantastic. I really want one of those space kitty stamps . . .

Comment by Keith S. Chambers on October 23, 2014 at 8:35pm: From Mars Tokyo:

Back panel [top] and front panel [bottom]. This is one of two envelopes I received from Mars on the same day [!!!]. As much as I enjoy them both, I'm going to just share this one today because I'm a sucker for robot heads [not so much for Putin heads] . . .

Comment by Keith S. Chambers on October 23, 2014 at 7:59pm: Many fantastic envelopes have been sent my way over the past year and a half [my IUOMA journey thus far] I will have to just start sharing what is recent and go from there . . .

This envelope was sent my way from Piro [R. Rios] . . . Piro always has some great artwork to share.
