I've been getting into the idea of the picture postcard as a document of the everyday, and I thought the eye-catching, graphic quality of this process would well complement a less picturesque side of the city.

So my goal was to create a mundane but uniquely San Franciscan series of images.

I knew I wanted to do a large series of three-layer screen printed postcards (four layers if you count the backs). For inspiration I took a few trips to the southern neighborhoods, where the Victorians thin out and one can actually find industry. I found there to be pretty much endless supply ideas there. For now, these are the best twelve. This turned out as a series of 55 sets, packaged and numbered in homemade pouches.
