Catalogue Note

-Si, il tempo è fondamentale, è l'elemento principale di tutto. Del resto non ci vuol molto a dirlo, però è proprio la base: sia le date che i timbri postali che i quadrettini sono sempre una questione di tempo che è l'unica cosa veramente magica che c'è, d'una elasticità incredibile. Ognuno ha il suo tempo-
