From Russia with irises

Quite some time ago I participated in Eduard's mail art call on the subject of irises. He sent me a very nice pamphlet showing the documentation for it. You can still see the entries at the Mail Art Project "Irises" blog.








And it arrived in this great envelope with some huge triangular stamps. Even more impressive is that the envelope is made from newspaper, which travelled really well and did not get torn at all. 



Спасибо!

  1. I didn't participate, but I have enjoyed the contributions (a lot, by the way!). I love the documentation.

    Today, coincidentally, I published a postcard from Eduard :)

    1. Is it a coincidence, or the start of a Russian spy novel?

      And a pamphlet is a nice (much cheaper) way to do documentation.

    1. They are very impressive stamps - and so large as well. I find Russia often has very interesting postage stamps.
