There were only a few Escher postcards left; I have some other postcards that I altered with text - they'll show up on the blog eventually, although you'll most likely see them on MMSA first. I don't *think* there's anything mailable left in the basement...FinnBadgerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17623312291708136478noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3905212958338435906.post-30685817327599305922014-03-11T21:47:59.286-04:002014-03-11T21:47:59.286-04:00Phillip, your altered post cards are great.

Of the vintage ones, the 'youngest' I had left was #60 - and I still haven't sent that one - and the 'oldest' was #120, with some gaps inbetween.<br /><br />I have continued the numbering system on the envelopes, and currently (after a new round of making more this weekend) my stash is up to #237.<br /><br />I have not numbered the postcards - and now I wish I had! Maybe I'll start doing that... I should get a number stamp like I've seen on some mail art.FinnBadgerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17623312291708136478noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3905212958338435906.post-82436123200875093512014-03-10T06:50:15.141-04:002014-03-10T06:50:15.141-04:00Speaking of your basement....when you first ran ac...Speaking of your basement....when you first ran across my blog and remembered the *100* envelopes in your basement, were there exactly 100? The envelope with the sunglasses says 106, but it looks like old paper, so, I am curious if there were more than 100 envelopes in your stash in the basement. Also, if you have continued numbering, what number are you on now? Do you include envelopes in your numbering system? Or did you start with 1 when you added postcards to your mail art?jean wilsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10380435791596841268noreply@blogger.com
