I believe it was Nosey Parker who had wanted to know how CMJA"s artwork (lol) was leaving the jail.
I don't know about the rules at Sheriff Joe's jail, but here in Louisiana inmates can fill out a request for one of their visitors to take some of their property home. They can send drawings, cards, clothing, magazines, and books home. Whatever the property consists of, the visitor receives it at the end of the visit.
Most commissaries sell legal size envelopes to the inmates and they will use them for either legal paperwork or to send artwork (lol) home. You would be absolutely shocked at how many budding artists there are in jail and prisons.
Inmates will pay these so-called artists with commissary items or favors to draw birthday cards, valentine cards, or other types of cards for them. This is the same with anyone who has really good handwriting. Some inmates can write almost exactly like calligraphy.
MOO
