    Wow, that big stamp is a beauty, Ruud! Is that a present to yourself for 25 years??

    The years without art? Pardon my ignorance but why was there such a thing??

    received a lot of mail-art about the art-strike. Was in contact with Stewart Home and many others in the beginning 90-ies. So a lot of documentation in my TAM-Archive, including this rubber stamp. When you google a biot more you find: http://www.incunabula.org/2013/07/stewart-home-on-the-art-strike-19... and much more....

  • borderlinegrafix

    Very cool, EH!  Thanks for sharing.

  • Eraser Heed

    The same to you BG. Found a different eraser from what I am used to carve in that is much softer so now I carve two every day compared with one per fortnight before. Much cheaper also so... good days are here for rubber stamping. Cheers to all of you!
