Star Wars Hobo Mail Art by Ape Lad

(Envelope art by Adam Koford -- Ape Lad)

I sure miss getting regular old-fashioned mail. In an age where everyone communicates through texting and email, it seems that Mail Art is becoming a lost ... well... art.

So I asked artist and illustrator Adam Koford (also known on the Internets as Ape Lad) if he'd be interested in a mail art swap with me, and lo and behold this masterpiece arrived today.

Adam is known for his own creation -- The Laugh-Out-Loud Cats -- as well as a fascination with hobos. So he merged those characters with a few Star Wars characters you might recognize acting as hobos in this set of images below.

I'm still deciding what Star Wars Mail Art I'll be sending Adam as a response but you can bet I'll be using weird cartoony portraits, collage art, and rubberstamps!
