Robert Frost Christmas Cards: One Step Backward Taken

A view from above of the pamphlet standing upright.

Designed and printed by Joseph Blumenthal, this 4-inch by 5-inch pamphlet-style book is identical on the front and back, a pale gold band printed across both covers to separate the text for title and author, both printed in red. The brief text suggests that a careful step backwards from crisis might allow one to live to see the sun shine again in the future.
