original K-Martha by Legerdemaine was definitely NOT a traveling event
stamp but a hitch hiker. The enigmatic creator of this opus was never
a fan of the "box on the table" phenomenon that has become common at
gatherings. In fact, he has not been known to frequent gatherings at
all, at least not in a recognizeable personna. There have, however,
been several unconfirmed sightings over the years. I don't blame
anyone for wanting to own this stamp, a venerable piece of
letterboxing legend. Funhog
