Description

“The Poeming Pigeon: Sports”

The first eleven issues of The Poeming Pigeon featured original cover illustrations by Robert R. Sanders, introducing “Homer” our pigeon mascot donning his favorite chapeaus & unique accessories to celebrate each thematic issue.

We’re not sure how a pigeon could actually play sports, and maybe most simply watch from the rafters. But that didn’t stop Homer from giving it the ole college try. Donning his Portland “P” baseball cap, a tennis racket and golf club under his wing, he’s ready to grab a baseball bat and swing for the fences. He must have been inspired by the winning poems inside the book.

  • Overall Print Dimensions: 11″ x 14″
  • Cover art is depicted with decorative borders
  • Ready for framing and/or matting to match your individual decor.
  • $19.95 each
