To Donna, Love Bob
FOUND by Sheri
in Great Russell Street, London, UK
I attend law school in Los Angeles and was in London for a summer international law program. Two copies of this photograph were taped to a pole outside our school one day.

We collect FOUND stuff: love letters, birthday cards, kids' homework,
to-do lists, ticket stubs, poetry on napkins, telephone bills, doodles -
anything that gives a glimpse into someone
else's life. Anything goes...
Donna masturbates to thoughts of hairy astronauts.
Bob can't believe he found these sexy glasses on sale at the pharmacy and now Donna will want to get it on with him.
Ozzie just wants his flightsuit back.
Bob is so proud of the souvenir suit that was awarded to him by the Wizard when he became the most recent citizen of Oz.
This mother fucker is going to space.....
He looks spacey enough to get to the moon without a rocket...
"Is that a space capsule in your pocket, or are you just happy to see me?"
Match.Com couldn't do justice to all the sexiness this man contains...Donna was so overcome she had to share him with the world!
"Hey baby, I am an astronaut, here is a picture of me in my suit.
What? Oh Ozzie... umm, that is my military call name.
Long hair bearded hippie? When your in space you can't shave or get a hair cut so you have to look like this."
Hippie Bob struck out with Donna who liked military men.

The comments on the pic are enlightening, including the fact that "Ozzie" is Robert Osband from Titusville, Florida.
This was an apparent art piece...
I was hoping to find the astronaut's actual name or full history (it looks like a real suit after all), so I did some searching and found the site below. Part of the Art collabrative's motives were that "we are interested in what happens to popular 'art' pieces when they have no clear author."
Well I know what happens... They get sent to Found.

fter all he'd been through. Still. to placate him, they let him wear the suit & took a couple photos. Everyone hoped that his memory would return before he had to go back and face the musi
Isn't there a bit in Escape From the Planet of the Apes where NASA rescue the crashed astronaut and open his helmet only to find....
You should see what Beard Review had to say about me!

- Ozzie (yes, THAT Ozzie)
Does Harriet know that Ozzie is sending photos of himself to Donna [Reed?], and signing them Bob?
What about Bob, anyway?
Ground Control to Major Bob.

The other flickr link didn't work so i did a google and found:

(I'm glad I knew how to correctly spell winsday)
Awesome, Bob... Ozzie... I love it when the subject of the found actually comments.
Back in his college days ... before Black Sabbath had been thought of, before the TV reality show, before any of the fame and glory of his walk of fame ... good old Oz just wanted to be WITH the stars, not BE a star.
Life was so much simpler then.
so, after you bought the suit, Bob, did you have it monogrammed? And what is your book, Have Spacesuit, Will Travel, about? A work of fiction or travelog?
Most satisfying find, btw.
oh, wait, it was your copy of the book, not a book that you wrote. What's it about, anyways?
And do you always sign stuff in green?
Dang it! I knew Bob Ozzie had been cheating on me, but I never thought it was with my best friend, Donna.
This sucks. That rat-bastard!
That's so trippy! The whole story behind the collaborative art thing and the Asbo Twink Collective! For once our questions about a find are answered! Thank you to Feeling in coherent! Hi Ozzie! (Isn't this the first time the subject of a find has joined us? Very cool.)
Not sure if this is common knowledge in USA but ASBO stands for Anti Social Behaviour Order (a legal order given to yobs). I think twink is universal. HTH. TTFN!
Happy to help
I feared that exposing it would take away the romance of it. Like landing on the moon took it from poetic muse to orbiting big rock. But, I decided to er on the side of being buzzkill.
Hey! I made found of the day! I'm so proud!
I did actually send the photo back to the To Donna Love Bob address with my email on the back, but I haven't heard from them.
He looks very familiar. I don't know why or from where, though.
Hey, I want a picture of myself in an astronaut suit!
This picture scares me. I don't like looking at it, it's too disturbing. I don't know why.
I think it is so way cool to have the subject and the sender comment! C'mon Bob, tell us why your mug was taped to a Pole! Enquiring(Nosey) minds want to know!
Oh by the way Bob, none of the regular commentors have called you creepy.You should feel honored!
Bob, you sent Donna into orbit, if you know what I mean, didn't you? The earth moved and all that, right?
Dog Breath, I think Tessa's comment counts.
Tessa, It's a 1975 picture. Everyone looked like that. I hope for your sake that no pictures of you today make it to the site in 35 years.
@Night in gale: Great, now that song is going to be stuck in my head all day.
Pshhtttt...
This should be the new "cool" thing to do for senior pictures.

Oh my god! That guy is sooo f'in hot!!!!
How the heck did Ozzie know he was the subject of today's find? I'm a little fuzzy on that part.
Ozzie has friends that have been in high places. This is a find that will be commented on for years.
If you guys go to the website mentioned by feeling in coherent (way up there, earlier in the day) you will find the answers to your questions.
And ditto.. the finder and the found subject being here today! That's gotta be a first! Very cool!
Hanson, what is a yob? I also do not understand the rest of your post: "I think twink is universal. HTH. TTFN!" I know what a twinkie is, but not a twink. Oh well.
A yob is a slang term for an uncouth or thuggish young person, a twink is slang for young gay men, HTH is internet slang for 'Hope This/That Helps', TTFN is an initialism for 'ta ta for now' (or see you later).
As George Bernard Shaw said, the US and the UK are "two nations divided by a common language".
Is that an astronaut wearing glasses?! My childhood dream of becoming an astronaut was ruined because everyone told me you had to have perfect eyesight to be one! AGHHH!
The real reason Ritchie Valens lost his girl and had to write that song...
Yep this is priceless -- we have BobOzzie, the star of the Find; we have Sher, the star Finder....
Now Bob -- can you still get in touch with Donna (and her new scanning hubby?) That would *perfectly* round out this Found!
(oo -- Jason -- shouldn't this go in the "Hey That's Me!! section" too?)
Found History!! I love it!
Oh and -- BobOzz... Did you affix your nametag to the suit, prior to giving it to your friend? (Guess it's like signing a birthday card?) Inquiring (nosy) minds need to know!!
...Dr. Ozbourne, I presume?
