… in celebrating National Poetry Month by subscribing to our Hot Type Letterpress Printed Poetry Post Card Double Subscription series!
Give the gift of a monthly letterpress printed poetry post card sent directly to a person of your choosing, and receive your own subscription as a bonus.
This double subscription poetry post card series will be sent out each month, beginning mid-April 2026 for National Poetry Month and lasting for one year until April Poetry Month of 2027.
Type will be cast at the C.C. Stern Type Foundry specifically for this series. Our volunteer typecasters and printers will use the Foundry’s collection of sorts casting machines, Monotype composition casters, Linotype and Ludlow line casting machines to produce the type for the monthly postcards.
Monthly poems will be chosen by 4 curators. This year the curators are:
Lost Horse Press is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, independent literary press that publishes the works of established as well as emerging poets, and makes available fine contemporary literature through cultural, educational, and publishing programs and activities.
Mother Foucault’s Bookshop and L’école buissonnière a non-profit organization dedicated to creating the conditions for art, literature, music, and subversive play to thrive.
The FisherPoets Gathering is a creative celebration, since 1998, of commercial fishing and its community through original story, song and poetry from folks with authentic experience in the industry. It takes place the last weekend of February in Astoria, Oregon. The public is welcome to stop in.
Airlie Press is a nonprofit publisher run by writers, dedicated to cultivating and sustaining fine contemporary poetry and to promoting poets from the Pacific Northwest—and beyond.
Proceeds generated from this subscription series supports preservation and literary arts programs of the C.C. Stern Type Foundry, an Oregon 501(c)3 organization. To order, please visit the market place at https://www.metaltype.org/marketplace/p/poetry-postcard-subscription-202...
