Vintage Felt Banner

c. 1970's, Buffalo, New York. An unusual and evocative example of mid-20th-century American folk art, this handmade felt banner was discovered in the barn of a wood and steelworker. Carefully cut felt letters are meticulously glued onto a warm red background, spelling out the full text of "Returning Home", a poem by American poet John Ciardi. A graceful testament to home and love’s persistence. Evidence of sun fading and expected wear throughout. Please inquire for display.
