I love getting mail. Especially this kind of mail.

I made mention, in my recent post about illustrator Bob Staake, of a place to get hold of a piece of original Bob Staake artwork.

I ordered a “doodlekaboodle” a couple of weeks ago and it arrived today.

What a treat.

For a mere $40. You can request an original, personalized doodle by an illustrator who typically designs the covers of The New Yorker and Time magazines.

I chose “Desert Island” for Environment, “Designer” for the Mail Character, and “Unsafe Toy” for the Secondary Element.

Here’s the result (click to see the whole image).
