Tim McCool let us know that when he saw this building in his hometown of Pittsburgh he thought it would be a perfect fit for a standard envelope … and our call for mail art.

McCool is no stranger to Hyperallergic, he [designed a great digital wallpaper](http://hyperallergic.com/6612/ipad-iphone-wallpapers/) for us last year and we published his hilarious “[Artists Go Hollywood](https://hyperallergic.com/artists-go-hollywood/)” poster around the same time.

For his contribution to the *Mail Art Bulletin*, he created a great line drawing of a narrow house — I’m guessing early 20th C. — he spotted and added some beautiful watercolor color, which makes the image pop.

This isn’t McCool’s first foray into mail art, check out [another project](http://timmccool.com/mailart.html?ref=hyperallergic.com) he did a few years ago.

*Thanks for adding your voice to the Mail Art Bulletin, Tim!*
