Artistamps definition: (from wikipedia) An artistamp (a combination of the words “artist” and “stamp”) or artist’s stamp refers to a postage stamp-like artform. It is similar to a Cinderella stamp in that it is not valid for postage, but it differs from a forgery or a bogus stamp in that (typically) the creator has no intent to fool any post office or collector of stamps.  The artistamp is intended to be a miniature artwork which can depict or commemorate any subject its creator chooses.

Artistamps are an extention of Mail Art and have been created since the dada period.
