    Thx Mim, a look at the small print in that a&p is fascinating. I spy Bill Wilson. I spy Irene Dogmatic. She's still in Berkeley and friends w/ many of us on FB. Isn't that wild? 

  • Mim Golub Scalin

    I love looking closely. All the names-the artist Rosenquist, art editors, museum directors, more. Thanks for posting this. We sometimes lose sight of our beginning.”
  • Jenn Miltenberger

    I seem to have taken in many homeless add and passes in the last year and this one came in a recent random stack. Over ten years old, added by John and Jim. Debating if should add and send out in circulation again or pass it back. ;) 

  • Susan Weisberg

    It looks finished to me. But I tend to like things that are not cluttered. 

  • Mel Anie

    I agree with Susan, for the same reasons. Although, the list of words..... Can you add to the back or you can you add another page?

  • De Villo Sloan

    Woh Jen Miltenberger, an add & pass with contributions by Jim Leftwich & John Bennett)! I don't play favorites! After you've been in m-a for awhile you get friends!

    Did you add to it, Jen? I'd definitely add and pass along. Then Jim and John can say they collabed with you ;)

    I am a guilty add and pass grabber. If I like it, I keep it! But that's greedy and I do have an archive.

    i got an envelope from opal moiety today with a S.F. return address and CA postmark.  seems 'real'  but this thread has made me question everything. lol

     

    it had a bunch of pages torn out of the book of mormon.

    nothing warms my heart more than such casual heresy  disbursed via post.  :)  happy early new year everyone!!

    I've got a new A&P series coming out! Frequently Asked Questions. To be engaged with however the receiver would like to. As these and others are returned to me, they will be documented and given a new life (some sort of zine, exhibition, ongoing project, etc). Let me know if you'd like to receive one of these fresh sheets full of possibilities! I'll include some art for keeps as well :)

  • Mel Anie

    Yes, Mah Nu, I will happily engage with your frequently asked questions; thank you.

  • Amy Irwen

    I have some add n passes ready to head on.. any takers? Let me know...I'd like to split them with 2 if possible...

  • Jenn Miltenberger

    Amy, feel free to send my way if they’re not ones I already sent to you :p 

  • dustincecil

    I"m always open to A&P..:)

  • Amy Irwen

    Great Jenn and dustincecil...I will divide them between you both...thanks!

    Months ago I received some mail art. I didn't know what it was. I replied to it in my way - I cut things out, drew things on, added some stamps, folded it into a zine and sent a lucky penny back because I was asked to mail them £30 (which confused me enormously!). I have figured out that it was an add & pass, so I have posted it here. I have a photocopy of their original but not of mine. It was from someone called Krzysztof Szymczak - but I sent my version back to him. Does anyone want to play with one of these if I fix it up a bit?

  • Susan Weisberg

    I would immediately trash anyting that asked me to mail 30 pounds. And there's no IUOMA member named Krzysztof Szymczak.

  • Susan Weisberg

    I'm sorry I didn't know aboutKrzysztof Szymczak. I looked him up in the UoMA list of mail-artist profiles and he wasn't there, so I apologize for that misunderstanding.

    The only things I would throw away are things that seem suspect, such as a request to send money. I don't think I need to post a warning about that.

  • Mel Anie

    Oh, Susan, it took me months to reply because I felt uncomfortable about the money side of it too. There was an order form for some catalogue, which it appeared I could buy. I couldn't decide if it was a hoax or not, so I sent the drawing of a lucky penny from Fortnum & Mason. Vernon, I have the original add & pass photocopy that was sent to me. I could turn it into a similar little zine and would be happy to send it on to you, if you like.

  • Bonniediva

    Mah Nu! Hey, Darlin'! Yes, please, to some of your Add/Passes! 

  • Mel Anie

    I received a fun little Add 'n' Pass book from Fleur Helsingor. It was started by Ed Giecek. It had a Halloweeny theme & now it has a bit of a 'Hello-ween' feel too. These photos are of a couple of pages before I work on it. Please let me know if you would like to receive it next. 

  • Fleur Helsingor

    You're welcome, Mel Anie ... enjoy!

  • Mel Anie

    I have added to most of the pages in this little zine and now I'm ready to pass this one on. Who would like it?

  • Jenn Miltenberger

     Ed Giecek, Joel Cohen (the Sticker Dude), Katerina Nikoltsou, Opal Moiety, C. Mehrl Bennett, and myself. 

  • Amy Irwen

    Just wanted to note that Katerina Nikoltsou does not want any add n pass sheets sent her way...I'm not sure if this has been noted before or not. I just received an envie full of pass ons in December that Kat sent....thanks all

  • Jenn Miltenberger

    Thanks for reminding others, Amy.

    I believe she has it noted in her profile too.

    The one below is a little older. 

    If anyone wants add and passes, let me know ;) 

  • Erin Morse

    Hello, I have five add and pass to send. Let me know if anyone is interested! :)

    thx

  • Jenn Miltenberger

    Would anyone like some Add+Passes sent their way?

    I'm always open to taking them in :)

  • Kimberly Carpenter

    Hello 

    I carved this bench stamp the other day. The empty bench makes me think about the world right now. Quiet places without people and empty benches waiting for people to come back and enjoy the view. I'd like to send out cards with just the bench on them for people so fill out the 'view' and send on/return. Is this the right group for that sort of thing?

  • Jenn Miltenberger

    Totally, Kimberly. Would love to add. :)

  • Kimberly Carpenter

    Great I'll send one your way Jenn

  • Heleen de Vaan

    That’s a beautiful bench stamp, Kimberly!

    And yes, also I’d love to add to your bench :-)

  • Kimberly Carpenter

    There's one coming your way Heleen :)

  • Susan Weisberg

    Dear Add&Passers, You all are so prolific, I can't keep up. I'm going to take a leave of absence from this group, so please don't send more A&Ps my way. Thanks!

  • Crystal T

    I have some add and passes to send.  Let me know if you are interested!

  • RUTH GILES

    I'm happy to have a couple of A&Ps, Crystal.  Thanks

  • Jacob Ryan Galbraith

    I got an Add and Pass today, who would like me to send it to them next? In the US please.

  • Jacob Ryan Galbraith

  • Mim Golub Scalin

    Who's interested in continuing an add and pass booklet. I received it from a friend I met at KollajFest in New Orleans in 2019 (when we had to leave 48 hrs after we arrived due to impending awful storm)

    Anyway, I'm the first in it. So who'd like it next, in USA please and thanks Mim

    I used to make mass copies of add & pass sheets when I still had my printer. I don't really feel like printing stuff anymore but I'd be more than happy to participate. My drawing skills are elementary at best. I don't know if that matters. I'm not really in the mindset to play with glue and knives.

  • Jenn Miltenberger

    Apparently, Max had to add to one of my finished ones recently received back.
