My little discussion forum on send paper card
Boulder, Colorado couple Stephen Schutz and Susan Polis Schutz started the Blue mountain cards company in the early 1970s as a vehicle for their illustration and poetry hobbies. They began by combining Stephens artwork and Susans free form poetry to create poster prints that embodied their shared feelings about life, love and nature, very much in keeping with the hippie culture of the time. The Blue Mountain cards company was initially conceived as a poster business when the couple persuaded a local Boulder bookstore to offer several of their posters on consignment. The business took off with the posters popularity; soon other area stores began carrying the prints. Blue Mountain Arts, parent company of Blue Mountain Cards, was officially formed in 1971.
