Postal Art Theme- Spoiler Alert

Yesterday, a day before the deadline for mailing out any swap pieces, the ideas finally came.  I seem to work in sets, multiples, or series much of the time, so it was no surprise when eight, instead of four, cards resulted from today's three hours of effort.  Now, to decide which four to send in for the online mail art group exchange.  And to get these into the postal delivery system a.s.a.p.  Today!


Isn't there something iconic about the patina of rust?


Does anyone remember RFD:  Rural Free Delivery?


The rest of the world seems to have much more interesting mail drop boxes than we do!



I remember going with my grandfather to pick up the mail.  His post office box had a glass door with gold lettering.  I can still hear the clink of the key turning in the keyhole, the snap of the door shutting afterward.



I don't know how these polka-dots crept in here... Wanna' be's from the previous Dots and Stripes Swap?


Don't you just love a mail box stuffed with letters and art?
