Some time ago I picked up this from the post office, believe it or not, a huge swim fin, which has turned into mail art!

It reads "Where do fins go when they die?" A fun word game - fins or Finns (like in finnish people)..

..and there is always a story!

The painting technique is fantastic! Is this trashpo painting?

Thank you so much Dean and sorry but my answer is.. don't know..!

A Fin to Fin-land! Fintastic, as Lisa says! How does Dean do it?

How does the French Post agree to do it?

And how does the Finnish Post agree to deliver it?

'Would not happen here :-(

And think of all the FUN tht the mail carriers had :-))))

This is a real rare treasure, Carina!
