In Italy most of public libraries are not preservation libraries, so discard old book (because they have no room for all) and keep the "just published" even the silly ones... . But there are "subversive" librarians thak take care of interesting old books, too. I am fond of all books with smell of  previous lives, as well as found objects, of course.....

Hahaha!  I know that picture... I was around then (here in the bay area - not in the bathroom when she took that rubber bath! lol).  I love that book.

 

I am saddened that a library would get rid of it!  There's nothing else like it.  But, I'm glad you found it on Amazon.  Cool!

It's a great image, Linda - sometimes it's hard to relax after something coming out so well the first time.  Give it some time and you'll get something you like again.  This is a great stamp!

I like the raw impression a rubberstamp like this can give. So, yes, like this sample!

carla, I don't understand why my first attempt to an art technique is good, the following approaches are not so nice...and so on...Here my first rubber stamp, but fear of going further and essay.......(I throwed away some awful following ones) I have "something to say" through rubber sheets ...

Those are wonderful!  Nice work, Litsa.  Tam is a lucky rubberstamp archive. ;)

Two eraser carved stamps designed and made by Litsa Spathi. Gift to the TAM-Rubberstamp Archive in 1998.

Carving one's own is a wonderful thing which tends to expand your artist self in all kinds of directions, especially over time. I highly recommend it to everyone. People are usually surprised what they can do with carving.

Cool Ruud... I'll put my mind and hands to it. ;)
