Allport Editions
Art and a garage. That's how this humble little company got its start! In 1982, in true cottage-industry fashion, Ardys Allport cleared out her garage in northern California and launched Allport Editions, a fine art poster company aimed at making art accessible. After several years of successful poster publishing, blank note cards were added to the Allport line. At the last minute, Ardys' son Michael threw a few humor greeting cards into the mix, almost as an afterthought. Little did he know the combination of art and humor would take Allport to the top!
Greeting cards have since become the success of the Allport story. Allport Editions makes cards that are artful and cards that are funny, and sometimes cards that are both at the same time. They are the distinct combination of unexpected, corresponding ingredients picked up along their amazing journey. Art and intelligence, beauty plus wit - that's what makes Allport Editions who they are today!
