Richard Canard's homage to Diane Keys aka DK (Carbondale, Illinois, USA)

Mail-art by IUOMA member Richard Canard (Carbondale, Illinois, USA)

August 14, 2013 - I dreamed it would happen. It has happened, and I am the lucky recipient. Richard Canard - one of the inadvertent inventors of Trashpo - has paid homage to the undisputed Queen of Trash.

Like Jim Leftwich (Virginia, USA), Richard Canard has made few public declarations concerning Trashpo. His mail-art to Diane Keys (Illinois, USA) reflects affection and regard, IMHO. What are we to make of his statement on this card? Does he refer to mailing trash? Lint? Roadkill? A part of Richard always remains cryptic.

Richard, deepest thanks, as ever!

Comment by DKeys on August 14, 2013 at 5:37pm: I just love this. Richard is the best silent low-profile member of IUOMA. This inspires me to send him something truly strange, except the p.o. is sending things back to me lately. I'm flattered
