Hirayama Fireworks, No. 34

Hirayama Fireworks, No. 34, c. 1890
Illustration
Illustrated Catalog of Garden & Lawn Pieces, p. 34
One man, one match, one magnificent mess of light. In this exuberant print a lone figure sets off a skyful of starbursts - each one brighter, louder, and less concerned with restraint than the last. It’s not just a demonstration, it’s a declaration: more is more, and the night isn’t over yet.

From the people who send them
The handwriting doesn't look printed. My mom asked if I'd written it myself. I said yes.
— Blake, LA
Arrived in four days. I'd braced for longer.
— Ian, Chicago
Sent it to a friend I hadn't seen since college. He sent me a photo of it on his side table a week later.
— Dave, Philly
My wife sent it to me on a random Tuesday. No occasion. That was the point.
— Eddie, Tampa
Kept it on my shelf next to my books. Doesn't look out of place. That's the highest compliment I can give a card.
Chelsey, New York
My little brother graduated in May. I live across the country. This was the closest I could get to being there.
— Jared, Chicago
Put one in every welcome bag for a networking event I hosted. Got emails afterward asking how I'd handwritten them all. I told them my secret.
- Carly, Ft. Lauderdale
