Join Or Die Decal - Made in USA

The “Join, or Die” illustration was first published in 1754 by Benjamin Franklin as a political cartoon for the Pennsylvania Gazette, an early American newspaper.  The cartoon is a representation of all of the British Colonies in a cut-up segmented rattlesnake, which Franklin described as “the present disunited state of the British Colonies.” 

The letters next to the snake are abbreviations of each colony in geographical order, running south to north (South Carolina, North Carolina, Virginia, Maryland, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New York, New England).  Because of this, it can actually be viewed as a map of some sorts.  Georgia and Delaware are not portrayed on it, and the New England colonies are listed together rather than having their separate segments. 

Our decals are designed and produced are made in the USA by our team in Buffalo, NY. These decals are long lasting and apply to outside of the intended surface. Sticker measures 3.25x5"
