All but the 2 shown were lost at the Mexic-Arte Museum in Austin Texas. Any information on their whereabouts is appreciated and the finder will be rewarded with a signed copy of The Science of Surrealism – Assemblage Sculpture of Steve Brudniak. Beautiful, otherworldly images can be created by partially erasing certain offset printed materials. Two full sets of 20 postage stamps were done this way [see 32c U.S. Postage Stamp Erasures: The Civil War Series (1996)] along with some larger images taken from art history books. Each stamp is mounted on a card and renamed in pencil.
