Finally arrived home late last night due to the NYC's blizzard, to much my delight with a few new packages waiting at the door. Of course, one of them came from ASS. Here's a couple of photos: A nice book, "The Carnivals of Charlatans" by Hell'o Monsters whom I wasn't familiar with. The more I researched, the more I dug into their darker works! So, ASS, you've made me a new fan of their works. Definitely a cross between Richard Colman and Matthew Feyld. So danke to whoever, all the way from Austria! (I love Vienna's charming buildings and cafes!)

I am so glad that my gift finally made it there, and also that my choice was a good one Apparently there is a mysterious parcel sitting in my office and waiting to be opened by me on Monday, so I am really excited, as this could be the highly anticipated ASS.

My ASS present has arrived, but I had it sent to my parents to be sure it would make it there safe an sound. Looking forward to opening it when next I'm down. On another note, my gift will hopefully be sent out this week, apologies to my ASS and a happy new year to everyone!

So Sorry to my ASS recipient but trust me it will be in the mail this week. Crazy shipping procedures but I hope the wait will be worth it.

Mysterious parcel opened. I think that my Secret Santa should strongly consider a career as a mind reader, as my gift could not have been any better: I wanted to buy this book for myself as a Christmas present, but at that time Amazon Germany said it was not available for 3-4 weeks, so I decided to postpone the purchase till after the holidays. Not necessary anymore. Also exactly in time for my birthday. Thanks a lot, Gil

Mine arrive today! Huge thanks to my ASS! The Dr Seuss book was an inspired choice and the book of James Jean postcards has really opened my eyes to his work. And thank you for your kind words in the Gary Baseman card Attachments:

I would just like to say thank you to my secret santa. Today two prints by Ricky Allman arrived safely. I really appreciate the thought that went in to this and love the prints.
I hope that the book I sent out to my recipient arrived safely. I haven't heard anything posted on this thread to confirm this.

got mine the other day, and it's wonderful. will post some pics shortly.
sounds like mine has not been received, which is disappointing. i sent it out around the 17th december, but fear not it was insured! someone may receive not the thing they were originally intended to have, but something altogether different instead...
