Beautiful! I am going to ask a dumb question. (And perhaps I should know the answer, but I don’t) What exactly is a broadside? An illustration of a poem?
Lana Hechtman Ayers
Exquisite! How can I get a copy of this lovely boradside?
Cheryl
That’s just lovely!
Felicity
Both of you rock so hard.

Thanks so much you guys! I’ll post about how to order when I get them printed up…
Karen – broadsides (from wikipedia) have been taken by many small presses and publishers as a fine art offshoot of their work. Most often featuring a letter-press poem and accompanying art of some sort, these are frame-worthy pieces.

I get it. Art + Poetry. The two should be together. (I am thinking of those old Reese’s Peanut Butter commercials where the chocolate lands in the peanut butter. I know, bad analogy) Can’t wait to see how I can get a print!
Collin
Pretty! I want one, too!

OMG that’s gorgeous! Had you told me about this? WOW, J9, it’s wonderful!
sorry to miss you today.
Talk with you soon though!
Anne
Wow, that’s really cool!
Suzanne
Beautiful!
Radish King
I WANT! I WANT! I WANT!
love,
your very very best friend.

Jeanine, I love this broadside. Can I get one somewhere, sometime?
It conjures strange and darkly beautiful memories of childhood reading and play. A flavor of old Disney, (but better)–the imagery I remember from the 60’s and 70’s.
And the poem that goes with it is awesome! (of course)
