Burnt umber (a special shade of brown) and red depict and identify the forms of seven trees.  Among them are a great Elm, weeping Willow, an Oak, White Birch, Maple, and Poplar. 

A crosscut labels sapwood v. Heartwood and breaks down the bark into cabium, inner living bark, and outer corky bark categories.

What an interesting twist to have a keepsake or give-away that educates one so much regarding the very source of its material. A practical card for a woods-lover.

Saturn Press is an eco-concious company based on Swan's Island off the Maine coast. A married couple works together to make this international business happen. Jane Goodrich creates the designs, James van Pernis runs the company's 4 antique printing presses, and a sweet gal named Kathy who used to answer the phone recently retired.

Using an old-fashioned letterpress technique, paper sourced from a sustainable family-run mill, and a love for what they do, Saturn Press creates striking cards that will make a lasting impression no matter who the recipient.

Some folks love the vivid colors and unique images so much they request cards without envelopes to frame and hang them as wall art.
