Tom of Finland gets his own post mark: From Helsingin Sanomat in Finnish: http://www.hs.fi/sunnuntai/Homoikoni+Tom+of+Finland+saa+oman+postimerkin/a1397270610121?ref=hs-hitaat-e-1 and from Itella in English: http://www.itella.fi/group/english/current/2014/20140413_stamps.html
Send that to your prudish cousins at the bible belt next year from your visit Finland.
Or heck we should send a truck load of these to Putins office. |

Does anyone not gay, and under the age of 40 even know who Tom of Finland is except some Finns ???
Classic stuff indeed, but became less popular after the viral devastation of the gay community in the 80s. "He has mounted his hind-legs, and blown crass vapidities through the bowel of his neck."-á - Ambrose Bierce on Oscar Wilde's Lecture in San Francisco 1882 |

Congratulations......for once. My point exactly. Despite the fact you pose a question in answer to a question. Ugh. "He has mounted his hind-legs, and blown crass vapidities through the bowel of his neck."-á - Ambrose Bierce on Oscar Wilde's Lecture in San Francisco 1882 |

"The occasion for the latter is a national tribute to the illustrator Touko Laaksonen, better known as Tom of Finland GÇô and one of the best-known Finnish artists in the world GÇô who died in 1991 after a career of gay erotic cartooning, and whose over-the-top look and attitude had an impact on areas of art and pop culture well beyond the leather bar."

Nope. But I've gotten the same from Baptist sermonizers "He has mounted his hind-legs, and blown crass vapidities through the bowel of his neck."-á - Ambrose Bierce on Oscar Wilde's Lecture in San Francisco 1882 |

Oh wow what a stamp. If they were usable here I would buy a whole box of them so I could use them for years. The very sun of heaven seemed distorted when viewed through the polarising miasma welling out from this sea-soaked perversion, and twisted menace and suspense lurked leeringly in those crazily elusive angles of carven rock where a second glance shewed concavity after the first shewed convexity. |

Shadowed bigotry is still bigotry. And you need to stop trolling S & I.
Anyway, I've known about Tom of Finland since about 1981. "He has mounted his hind-legs, and blown crass vapidities through the bowel of his neck."-á - Ambrose Bierce on Oscar Wilde's Lecture in San Francisco 1882 |

I always found it odd that almost all of his drawn figures have the nearly same facial features...sort of a hyper-masculine look with full lips, high cheekbones, etc.
At least they don't all have big eyes like all those creepy paintings of children. "He has mounted his hind-legs, and blown crass vapidities through the bowel of his neck."-á - Ambrose Bierce on Oscar Wilde's Lecture in San Francisco 1882 |

I've noticed the same thing which aside from line work always tells me whose drawing it is that I'm looking for.
