About the artwork: Cute. It has always been a great pleasure being on the receiving end of your art. Unlike most I have had the wonderful benefits of witnessing your artwork develop through the years. Such talent, most importantly, such a diverse and prolific mind. Few have had the spectrum that you have demonstrated in all the pieces of your creation. To make a long story short, YOU are AWESOME!!!! And that's not because I am your mom!!! ;) Also, had you not had my scanner, I would have digitized the heart warming little creature that you had sent me so that I can share with everyone!
About the service: I would wish to see such a service being offered everywhere. In our world today, personalized mail is a lost art! (I must admit I don't even write "letters" any more!)
(I think this is such a wonderful idea, if only more of us in this world would participate in such endeavors!)
About the message: ......... Hardly witty ...... but ... I wish to be a guinea pig more often just the same!!!!
The message was:

About the artwork: I thought it was very cute and witty. I liked the combination of vintage artwork with the completely random but funny caption. The typewriter also gave the card an oldschool look that was very endearing and unique.
About the service: A nice service- it is always a treat to receive "snail-mail" especially in this personalized postcard form.
The message was:

Dear Slut;
(Just kidding about the slut part)
The weather here in Africa is pleasant but muggy. Tell Chantal I say hi. Kenz died. Were having a party.

XOXO,
Maurice Einhorn
