Yep, I pulled. Hi to you too! I'm pleased to receive so many vintage scraps (your uncle liked Grand Marnier?) — did you notice the orange 10¢ stamp was perfinned WIS and postmarked DISON? I guess it was sent from a government office in Madison.  Something will be on the way to you soon.

HI! 

1- did you pull where it says pull? :) There's a hidden message!

2- the back layer of paper with the prices is from a reproduction Sears and Roebuck catalog. Stamps are from an old stamp collection, bottle labels are from my uncle's collection gathered over many years of peeling labels. The blue sticker "par avon" is from an air mail envelope from the 40s I bought as part of a batch of old letters from an antique store. The grey pocket is from my chopsticks at the restaurant I went to for my birthday this year. 

Hope you liked it!
