Godine 40th Anniversary: a Limited Edition Poster
by Glenna Lang

This limited edition poster has been designed with painstaking care by longtime friend of the house, author and illustrator Glenna Lang. Its image depicts our little house's "cottage industry" beginnings, a time when, as David Godine writes, "The narrow, personal world of trade publishing was still run by opinionated individuals, whose names were often eponymous with their companies, and who more or less published what they liked and did their crying in private;" when "It was still possible to dream of becoming a general trade publisher whose list would cover a variety of subjects and whose books could be produced to high standards, and to do it all with a minimum of fuss and compromise."

It has been silkscreen printed in seven colors on fine acid-free paper, and we hope it finds a place of honor on your wall for decades to come.
