The Grave Bound Archives — Call for External Submissions
The Grave Bound Archives has recently reopened after a very long period of silence. Within its files are fragments, correspondence, and evidence connected to the vanished town of Thistlegrave (1872 – 1919).
We are now accepting external materials for review: found notes, ephemera, photographs, or any item that might have originated from—or refers to—the town. Mail-art, collage, typed memos, sealed envelopes, and altered documents are all suitable formats.
Every received piece will be treated as an archival recovery. Selected items may be photographed and logged publicly as part of the ongoing record (crediting the sender unless anonymity is requested).
Guidelines • Size: any; keep under standard letter/envelope for postal ease • Theme: Thistlegrave, forgotten towns, lost communications, reconstructed memories
• Feel free to invent your own departments, correspondents, or case numbers
• Return mail or exchange is possible—mark clearly if desiredSend to: The Grave Bound Archives c/o Curator’s Office
1208 CHERRY BARK RDAPOPKA, FLORIDA 32703 (please write clearly; all mail is logged upon arrival)
