Description: Located on Union Street in Boston's North End, the Green Dragon Tavern was a hotbed of activity in pre-revolutionary Boston. In 1764, the tavern was sold to the St. Andrew's Lodge of Freemasons. The tavern's "Long Room" was used by several clubs and caucuses for private and public meetings. Consider what was planned in that room...Historians have come to refer to the famed spot as the "Headquarters of the Revolution."
Description: A dark, symbolic reimagining of Benjamin Franklin's 1754 rallying cry, "Join, or Die." Centered around a grim skull and a coiling snake, this design strips the historic warning down to its rawest essence: the skull marks the absolute destruction of a fractured nation, while the serpent represents the fierce solidarity required to survive.
Description: A circular emblem style graphic with the text "NATIONAL PARK" arched at the top and "AFTER DARK" at the bottom. Inside the circle, a Sasquatch, a bear, and an alien sit around a campfire in a forest with pine trees and two UFOs beaming light down onto a large moon or sun in the background.
Description: A cartoon of a man in a white martial arts uniform with a black belt stands to the left. Behind him, a yellow starburst shape contains the text "JOIN NOW!!". To the right, three vignettes show people practicing martial arts: a grappling scene, a boxing scene in a ring, and a person punching a bag. The text "SPRINGFIELD JIU JITSU & MMA" is at the top.
Description: "Joints, You Gonna Behave Today?! NO" is a funny unisex t-shirt for people who have a disability or have one or multiple chronic illnesses or autoimmune diseases that affect the joints such as Lupus, MCTD, Scleroderma, Rheumatoid Arthritis, fibromyalgia, Ehlers Danlos (EDS), other types of arthritis, and other inflammatory diseases. Living with a chronic illness or disability often feels like having a rebellious body with a mind of its own. If your joints wake up every morning and immediately choose chaos, this funny t-shirt is for you. The "Joints, You Gonna Behave Today?! NO" tee perfectly captures what it feels like to negotiate with your own body, only to lose the argument before breakfast.
Description: 1765 rendition of Benjamin Franklin's famous political cartoon urging unity among the colonies during the American Revolution. The design was used by numerous colonial newspapers as part of it's masthead. This particular design was used by The Boston Evening Post. I have a few variations of the design available.

To the right of the rocket, the text "EARTH NEEDS YOU!" is displayed with a line underneath, followed by "JOIN TODAY". White curved lines suggest movement or orbits in the black background.
