End of the Line postcard

$2.00

Reproduction postcard of our Harriet Tubman piece.

Description

“Always remember, you have within you the strength, the patience, and the passion to reach for the stars to change the world.”

—Harriet Tubman

This oversized postcard is a reproduction (offset printed, NOT letterpress) of  our End of the Line broadside, created in honor of the challenges that lie ahead in our time. The large letterpress poster is now sold out, but this postcard faithfully reproduces the hand-lettered typography and hand-drawn illustrations of the original.

The illustration is inspired by the history and folklore of the Underground Railroad. To symbolize the difficult journey faced by anyone with a great task, the words are a bit of a challenge to read. Follow Harriet Tubman’s lantern as she guides you along your path.

You can find all available postcard designs in the postcards section of the shop.

Postcard size: 5 x 8 inches

PLEASE NOTE: these oversized postcards require extra postage for mailing.

PAPER FINISH: this postcard is made from paper with a smooth, eggshell finish. If you write on it, we recommend using either a ballpoint pen or some form of permanent, smear-proof ink.

Colophon reads:
Harriet Tubman (1820 – 1913) was born Araminta Ross as a slave in Maryland. In 1849 she escaped north traveling via the Underground Railway to Philadelphia. Once free, “Moses” made 19 more round trips—guiding nearly 300 slaves to freedom—and she “never lost a passenger.” During the Civil War, Tubman recruited slaves to fight for the Union Army and led the Combahee River expedition to free more than 750 people. After the war she continued to work tirelessly for the rights of women and African Americans.
