It’s that time of year again: time to start thinking about next year with a little help from Bettie Page and Olivia De Bearadinis (and others).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That’s right, another year, another crowdfunded calendar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For some reason, I got two this year. I don’t remember that being my order. Maybe it was a stretch goal?<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Along with the calendar(s), I also got the usual assortment of goodies, like a signed sketchbook…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button>
With bonus fingertip.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

…signed prints…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

…postcards…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

…stickers…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

…and an iron-on patch (I think?) and enamel pin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Overall, a pretty decent haul, and at least one aspect of 2027 will look good.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Check back soon for the next Mail Call, as – in theory – a long-awaited arrival may soon be showing up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
