TAM Rubberstamp Archive
The TAM Rubberstamp Archive started in 1983 by sending out the first sheets into the network Ruud knew then, and is now over 35 years old. Still more contributions come in and only rarely the normal public can get a glimpse of what the archive contains. Several documentations about this archive are previously made, and online a large catalogue is available. (You can find an overview of all important details mentioned in previous publications (see also www.iuoma.org).

DaDa machine Fluxus
A nice combination. Above the original handcarved rubberstamp made somewhere in the 90-ies by Ruud Janssen. Used on outgoing mail in these years.
