With all the music lyric stencil stuff I have been

With all the music lyric stencil stuff I have been posting recently i’ve been neglecting my typographic maps.

'Twenty bridges from Tower to Kew -
Wanted to know what the River knew,
Twenty Bridges or twenty-two,
For they were young, and the Thames was old
And this is the tale that River told.’

Hand-crafted typographic art featuring the opening lines to 'The River's Tale' by Rudyard Kipling in the shape of the river Thames, with all the relevant bridges plotted in position.

These words written by Robert Plant, from the Led Zeppelin’s classic, composed by Jimmy Page. The most played song on American radio, probably their most well-known track, and it was never released as a single.
