From Women Making History: The Revolutionary Feminist Postcard Art of Helaine Victoria Press by Julia M. Allen and Jocelyn H. Cohen

  • The Helaine Victoria Press banner went to every conference and festival to hang above the display, as in this photo, if possible, or across the front of the table. The press had it hand made with large white HELAINE VICTORIA letters in white stitched on the chcolate background with rainbow quarter circles in the lower corners and WOMEN OF HISTORY in yellow letters across the bottom.
