PS: The strange faux Lois shown here was a gift from Cˆiam.  He altered a photo of me and made it stamp from his created postal place of Ruritania.  We are both makers of artiststamps (aka faux postage) and have registered our faux countries with a Mail Art organization. (My "Napland" is AML #255.)
