Here in the USA we celebrate Thanksgiving Day as one of our most important holidays of the year. It is nearly always a day for gathering with friends and/or family and reflecting on the things for which we are most grateful. For most this is a religious observance, For me, a die-hard non-believer, it is nonetheless a spiritual occasion.

This year I am especially grateful for my mail-art correspondents and for the world-wide network of mail artists. You have given me space for my…

Beautiful watercolor card arrived in Greece from Martha.

"the moon in daytime, a wondrous sight", indeed!

It has the most delicate colors...and image of the rabbit-in-the-moon!

Also these painted cut-out figures are…

A fantastic ink-washed envelope...art-on-the-outside! This came in today's mail:

Erni sends TWO of his amazingly fun collage cards!

One has an image of an Advent calendar perhaps...(the "world" sticks with UHU!)…

We missed Halloween this year so it was great when Vizma sent me this belated Halloween Boekie sans boner jokes. Of course, we were somewhat disappointed by the lack of boner jokes and she has since promised to include them under a separate cover. I scanned this extra big for maximal viewing so please take a look. The jolly roger is the cover.

And here's…

Actually I just threw in the part about Rocky Marciano...both for thematic consistency and because this bit of ephemera that Nancy sent me (see upper left) reminded me of fight posters. It looks pretty good on this A-Line number too. On the flip side Nancy asked me if I miss Gilda. Nancy, my reply is in the mail. Thank you,…

Received this none to early warning about the impending holiday. Unfortunately, it looks like Thom's wall is about to be breached by the Xmas Rocket, aka the juggernaut of capitalist excess. But if Thom could just get with the program and starting being a maker not a taker he could start his own line of products and be on the receiving end of that gravy train.…
