i know you cant click on it to see it bigger but anyway....
i was wondering about damaged cards like this one...should i display the bag saying it was damaged? it came from london...went to florida because it had no state or zip code on it ...then strange enough showed up at my house in indiana...with a little peice of masking tape on it that said "not FL try Indiana".
this card is covered in blue and purple wax that smells really good and powerful. it makes my whole living room smell nice. but the wax was all falling off thats why it ended up in the damaged bag...any thought?

    I agree. It's an authentic representation not only of art but of the medium of "mail" art.

          I agree. If the envelopes got a cool drawing on it (damn over acheivers) or if during the mailing process something extreme's happened to the envelope (i.e. waterlogged (dripping), ripped almost in two etc.) then ya include it.

              i know it is about 4 years too late...but i have finally found this through google! how weird. well from what i remember i was doing a lot of melted wax pieces and must have got very damaged on trip over atlantic...but smell remained! but i think thats all part of its journey! Royal Mail have a tendency to put delicate things in bags like this... Lisa
