Join or Die Print
by LibertymaniacsNew 50 State Version
Join, or Die is Benjamin Franklin's political cartoon published in his Pennsylvania Gazette on May 9, 1754. It's the earliest known pictorial representation of colonial union produced by a British colonist in America.
The original was actually a woodcut showing a snake severed into eighths, with each segment labeled with the initial of a British American colony or region. The cartoon appeared along with Franklin's editorial about the "disunited state" of the colonies, and helped make his point about the importance of colonial unity.
During that era, there was a superstition that a snake which had been cut into pieces would come back to life if the pieces were put together before sunset.
We at LibertyManiacs.com have been sporting our line of shirts and products with the original image, but wanted to modernize it to make it relevant to today's patriots. That's why we did a complete redraw of Franklin's Eastern Rattler, chopped him into 50 different sections, and labeled each state. Now - finally - we have a revamped design for all of you liberty maniacs out there spreading the freedom message!
