?Hero? Andreas Hofer (1767-1810) - mail art call for postcards

This blog is dedicated to the Tyrolean Hero Andreas Hofer (1767-1810), who became the leader of a rebellion against Napoleon's forces. What is his role today - is there any left? Just an advertising symbol ? - 200 years after the rebellion took place in 1809. I invite all artists in the world to participate in this mail art call - be critic, politic, humorous, creative - all mail art will not be sent back and become part of the collection.

No. 33 - arriving mail art "Andreas Hofer wurde nicht erschossen..." from Siggi Liersch (Germany)

No. 33 - arriving mail art "Andreas Hofer wurde nicht erschossen..." from Siggi Liersch (Germany) - a new legend about the Hero was told: "Andreas Hofer wurde nicht erschossen. Nach den Befreiungskriegen nannte er sich Köttelbug und wurde der Star vieler Kurzprosastücke, die sein Angestellter Siggi Liersch niederschrieb". (Andreas Hofer wasn't shot. After the Napoleonic War of Liberation he called himself Köttelbug and became a star in little prosa poems. His secretary Siggi Liersch wrote them down) Thank you so much, but now I want to read these little prosa about Andreas Hofer-Köttelbug.
