ABOUT

A handsome, thoughtfully curated deck of twenty-four poems by Pulitzer Prize-winning poet, Robert Frost, including an illustrated booklet and wooden stand.

Robert Frost is one of America’s most celebrated poets, a household name and classroom staple. Known for pastoral imagery and deep themes, Frost’s poetry has earned him an unparalleled legacy as the quintessential New England poet.

This beautifully illustrated deck celebrates Frost's most beloved poems, guiding you through the day. Pull one for inspiration in the morning, tuck it into your pocket for guidance as you contemplate which road to travel on an afternoon hike, or admire on your desk as you stop by the woods on a snowy evening.

Good Hours includes:
  • 24 cards with poetry excerpts to inspire reflection, observation, and mindfulness.
  • A wooden display stand for showcasing a chosen card
  • A 48-page booklet with the complete versions of all 24 featured poems
  • A thoughtfully decorated keepsake box that’s perfect for your nightstand, altar, or desk

With the twenty-four poems neatly arranged by time of day—morning, afternoon, evening, and night—fans of Frost’s work will delight in discovering six poems for each category, such as “Flower Gathering” for Morning; “Blue Butterfly Day” for Afternoon; “Stopping By the Woods on a Snowy Evening” for Evening; and “Storm Fear” for Night. Whether beginning your day with a quote for inspiration, or ending it with a prompt for reflection, Good Hours offers rich tapestry of images and poetic verses.

STANDARD, PRIMARY, DM AND VARIANT COVERS

Standard and Primary covers are widely available through general retailers. They often have higher print runs and can be cheaper, especially during sales.

In contrast, Direct Market (DM) and variant covers are primarily sold in comic shops. DM editions tend to have more limited availability and may be more valuable to collectors.

The main differences lie in artwork style, availability, price, and collector appeal. Ultimately, the choice between standard and variant covers depends on personal preference, budget, and individual collecting goals.
