CARD FOR THE THIRD ANNIVERSARY OF THE FIRST BATTLE OF LITTLE SPARTA FEBRUARY 4 1983. 1986. WITH RUBBER STAMP IMPRESSION VERSO.

Little Sparta: Wild Hawthorn Press, 1986
11.5 x 17.7, 1pp card with noting the third anniversary of Strathclyde Regions “assault” on the Garden Temple at Little Sparta below which Finlay has written printed green on cream:BR>
“all wars grow mossy”.
The line reminds the reader that all statues and commemorative stones ultimately are covered in growth and the event forgotten. This is one of my favourite Finlay aphorisms – time passes and what seems memorable goes from public consciousness.
This card on the back has a black rubber stamp impression from Finlay that reads “FEBRUARY 4/DAY OF THE FLUTE”. VG+.
