Encouragement and Sympathy
A2-75 Waves Crossing the bar poem Letterpress NoteCard
$5.50
This greeting card was printed with love using our 1902 antique Chandler and Price letterpress machine.
Each color is hand fed through the press.
And one clear call for me!
And may there be no moaning of the bar,
When I put out to sea,
But such a tide as moving seems asleep,
Too full for sound and foam,
When that which drew from
out the boundless deep
Turns again home.
Twilight and evening bell,
And after that the dark!
And may there be no sadness of farewell,
When I embark;
For though from out our bourne
of Time and Place
The flood may bear me far,
I hope to see my Pilot face to face
When I have crossed the bar.
Each color is hand fed through the press.
Printed in customized vibrant colors with rubber-based ink.
- letterpress printed on 100% cotton rag cover stock
- folded to size 4.25 x 5.5 inches
- comes with coordinating envelope
- packaged in a biodegradable clear sleeve
And one clear call for me!
And may there be no moaning of the bar,
When I put out to sea,
But such a tide as moving seems asleep,
Too full for sound and foam,
When that which drew from
out the boundless deep
Turns again home.
Twilight and evening bell,
And after that the dark!
And may there be no sadness of farewell,
When I embark;
For though from out our bourne
of Time and Place
The flood may bear me far,
I hope to see my Pilot face to face
When I have crossed the bar.
