<div><i>I first noticed stickers by chance on a trip to Berlin,
Germany, in 2003, and since that time have collected over 12,000
original stickers from over 20 countries around the world, including
Canada, Egypt, England, France, Germany, Indonesia, Poland, Portugal,
Russia, Spain, Ukraine, and the United States. While the stickers I
first gathered were peeled off various surfaces of city streets
(windows, electrical boxes, signs, etc.), I am now expanding my
collection more strategically by acquiring original, unused stickers.
At least half of the stickers in my collection come from Germany
during trips I have made to Berlin, Hamburg, and Munich. Oliver
Baudach, founder and director of the Berlin-based Hatch Kingdom
Sticker Museum, has been my most generous supporter and has given me
well over 1,000 original, unused stickers. Other stickers come from
artists, collectors, alternative and anarchist book fairs, zine fests,
infoshops, squats, May Day gatherings, and political
rallies.</i></div>
