If you wandered in here by accident, chances are you're saying "What...?"

Everybody knows what a rubber stamp is. Especially if you've been to a bank in Mexico. Art rubber stamps work on the same principle, but their message is not just Paid or Past Due or Deposit To Account #12345. Their message can be whatever your heart desires. Pictures. Images. Witticisms. Something to impart a subtle message (a screaming face tearing at its hair) or to provide gentle decoration (flowers, moons, stars).

Favorite Mail Art using our stamps
 
  Stamps can be roughly divided into the Cute and the Not. Ours are mostly of the Not Cute variety. Some are decidedly Anti-Cute.

What does one do with art rubber stamps? Ask one of our Santa Barbara customers, who once confided that she owns over 15,000 stamps. We're curious about her, ourselves.
 


What regular people do with stamps:

Decorate envelopes before they're mailed.
This is the number one usage of stamps, according to our observations. Tour the Gallery, below, to see some fine examples.
Decorate the phone bill before it's mailed.
We like to think of the poor person there at CitiBank or wherever, opening mail all day long, and how his or her face will brighten on pulling our credit card payment out of the envelope and into the faintly green fluorescent light of the mail room (use lots of bright colors for extra impact.)
Make your own stationery.
Even simple quick stationery can be an attention-getter. Using artificial aids like embossing powder, combined with your name and address carefully applied with your home computer or a xerox machine, can be quite stunning.
Make your own greeting cards.
Christmas, birthday, Valentine's, Halloween and Ground Hog Day cards can be lavished on friends and relations. We all remember from childhood how memorable those handmade gifts can be. In these days of chronic time shortages, folks appreciate the thoughtfulness even more.

Spring 1997.....YES! Pigs Can Fly was acquired by The Rubber Poet of Rockville, Utah. Well, maybe acquired isn't exactly the right word. Cave Newt (the sole proprietor and worker-bee of Pigs) had a baby around Ground Hog Day 1997 and found it was impossible to keep up with all the work, so she twisted the Rubber Poet's arm to adopt Pigs (she knew the Poet folks would take proper care of Pigs.)

So you have two companies' worth of stamps on one web page. The mailing address and phone/fax numbers have been changed to protect the innocent, but the web page will stay right here.

There have been some small changes regarding CATALOGUES. We no longer mail paper catalogues or flyers with grab bags (see Order Form). We no longer accept NEW wholesale orders from retailers out there--previous accounts should see information in the next section

Our address & phone number is:

THE RUBBER POET
P.O. BOX 630218
ROCKVILLE, UTAH 84763-0218

PHONE & FAX (USA & CANADA) (800) 906 - POET

Foreign PHONE & FAX (435) 772-3441

RUBBER POET CATALOGUES now on line...kinda!

The Ruber Poet & Pigs and Poets paper catalogues are now on line and no longer available by mail. It may take a few weeks to get all of the missing odds and ends online, but it will happen. Rest assured that Rubber Poet designs are displayed at actual size.

A popular introduction to Rubber Poet designs and quality is to order a Grab Bag: It consists of 1/2 pound of unmounted rubber dies ("unmounted" is explained below) for $18.50. These are not blems or duds. The quality of the Rubber Poet Grab Bags sets the standard for the industry! Add another $3.50 to get a 9x12 piece of superstick™ cushion sent priority mail. Such a deal!

There's an online Order Form (please read about security) so you can order stamps, cushion, handles or Grab Bags, using your Visa or MasterCard. Of course you can order by snail mail, phone, or toll-free fax if you prefer. We ship stamps all over the world. Everybody's welcome. Our address is:

THE RUBBER POET, P.O. BOX 630218, ROCKVILLE, UTAH 84763-0218

We are no longer soliciting wholesale accounts. We do not sell foam backing, acrylic handles or unmounted dies wholesale. Past active wholesale accounts should feel free to contact us for further information. (rubrpoet@infowest.com; (Rubber Poet, PO Box 630218, Rockville, Utah 84763-0218); PHONE & FAX (800) 906-POET. Flying Messenger Pigs are fine, too, but we will not guarantee return of your pig if it gets lost on the way back to you. Also, if your pig catches cold en route, it cannot accurately relay messages while sneezing.

We also welcome out-of-continental-US inquiries, and accept M/C or Visa in US dollars. Our foreign phone & fax number is (435) 772-3441. We ship using air mail. We only speak Utah English, so, hey, we hope that you can understand us! Say what?

Here is the Rubber Poet official Angel Policy for those craftspeople desiring to use our stamps: Pigs and Poets encourage the creative use of our designs for hand-crafted projects. As long as the items for sale use our hand-stamped designs and are not mechanically or electronically reproduced. In short, hey, it's OK by us as long as no computer or xerox machine is involved in mass duplication!
