From Discoflux. There's a West Virginia postage stamp on the envelope (not pictured), but just look at the Earth stamps and the Saturn stamp. Far out, indeed! If you're trying to win or keep my mail art friendship, then rubber stamps is the way to do it. …

I like it! Haha. Just some clickbait to get attention.

Altered postcard, titled "HAZMAT: your taxpayer dollars at work," which in effect is an add and return, from Franny Wahinehae of The Milky Way, who added the chemical clean up worker to my op art rubber…
