What "Soviet stamps? Wake up, sir!
As for humor Valentin Vorobiev, not judge, you know better. Still, this kind of humor, in my opinion, a specific (perhaps this was precisely to your appropriate adjective "Soviet"). To cite one example:
In the year 94-95 I received from him at his home address a letter in which he carefully explained to me that the other creator, known in Russian-Parisian circles of intellectuals under the pseudonym of an elegant Stout, a scoundrel and villain, because he also stole Vorob'eva some technique, or borrowed money and did not return, in general, did something terrible, and therefore I should immediately dismiss his son from his company. In the case described a twenty-son Tolstoy is absolutely dependent on this work - and not to die of hunger, and to obtain a French residence permit - Mr. Ranzher will not lie to get a piece of paper is very difficult. In addition, the child of divorced parents, he never lived with his father, and therefore could not personally use any stolen money Vorobyov, nor uvorovannoy technique, because to draw too, had no relationship.
Then I remember, called Mr. Vorobyov, to tell him that he continue to receive mail from him the above described contents do not want to, but that he replied: "What's the matter?" I do not like - you can not read! ".
And in general, see-ka, it turns out that you are absolutely right - indeed, humorist
