Mail art by IUOMA member Diane Keys (Elgin, Illinois, USA)

April 22, 2017 - As I have asked before: What would the Karnival of Trash be without work by the raining Queen of Trash(po)? Luckily, Diane Keys has been exceedingly generous about sharing work. (Actually at one point she demanded a hefty payment, but she relented.) I am thrilled to be able to exhibit new work from Elgin especially rich in DKult memorabilia and promotional materials. Prepare to feast your eyes upon an absolutely classic Kulter treasure trove.

And the envelope:

Many thanks to Diane Keys!

that yin-yang would be you, IF you had done that. I can't think of anyone that would eat that, or even be ABLE to eat that, unless they had razor teeth

In my "bug out bag"? The one with the prosthetic finger?

Anyway, thanks for letting me have these for the KoT.

But you know the dried steak is part of my "kids don't try this at home" rant:

DO NOT MAIL FOOD! What if some yin-yang actually ate the rotting food and died? Nobody remembers the GA "EAT ME" mailings where people were (allegedly) hospitalized.

But overall, thanks.

man, i sent you a lot of ...stuff. Thanks for posting it all. I was most proud of the petrified steak. This will be something to put in your bug out bag

Hi William, I thought for a longtime that the Trashbook would be Trashpo's greatest contribution to mail art. However, it has definitely produced a lot of fine stamps too.
