MONTH OF THE POCKET BATTLESHIP. 1984.

Little Sparta: Wild Hawthorn Press, 1984
8.8 x 10.2cm , 4pp black and red on white card.
The card lists twelve new names of the months of the year (much like the way the French Revolutionary calendar renamed the year. The names “Month of the Hurricane”, “Month of the Snowman” mostly reflect the weather but there are also references to the events of 1793 but one line is printed in festive red “Month of the Pocket Battleship” which one may assume is the month around Christmas (this being a Christmas card). December is hence now the 4th month and a pocket battleship being a toy may be seen as a children’s gift.,BR>
