JimFlora.com offers unique sets of hand-printed notecards featuring vintage illustrations by Jim Flora. The sets depict quirky Flora music-themed figures from the 1940s and 1950s (left column) and woodcut maritime motifs (right). The cards, which were letterpress printed by Yee-Haw Industries, Knoxville TN, are packaged with kraft envelopes in clear sleeves.
Note on printing: tiny specks visible around the images are common and are a natural byproduct of the hand-printing process. Click images to enlarge.

   The Maritime Vignettes were adapted by Yee-Haw Industries from a 1954 Jim Flora woodcut entitled Connecticut Shore (see below). The cards, which can be purchased singly or as a set, are hand-printed letterpress in black ink on heavyweight bright white cardstock (single trimmed sheet; no foldover). Each printed image measures about 3-1/2" x 8" centered on a 4" x 9" card. The Maritime Vignettes can be framed as artworks or mailed.
