Floating Worlds: The Letters of Edward Gorey and Peter F. Neumeyer

The Centered Librarian has an interesting post about Floating Worlds: The Letters of Edward Gorey and Peter F. Neumeyer. The book includes a new collection of Edward Gorey's work—on postal envelopes and letters, of all things.

As blogger David Booker write:

Between September 1968 and October 1969, Gorey set out to collaborate on three children’s books with author and editor Peter F. Neumeyer and, over the course of this 13-month period, the two exchanged a series of letters on topics that soon expanded well beyond the three books and into everything from metaphysics to pancake recipes.

Here's an example of the envelope art:
