ABOUT

Based on the New York Times bestseller and the most crowdfunded original book in Kickstarter history

Show girls that they can be anything they want to be with this postcard set of 50 women that have changed history, from First Lady Michelle Obama to the Syrian refugee and Olympic swimmer Yusra Mardini. Here are 50 postcards—50 pieces of art to send or save—that celebrate your favorite heroes. The cards are organized with 5 tabbed dividers—organized by the pioneers, leaders, creators, champions, and warriors who have broken down barriers—and everything is packaged in a unique keepsake box. With a short bio of the woman on each card and powerful quotes to pepper the package, this is a perfect stocking stuffer or gift for your favorite feminist.

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.
