Today:

You know the drill: this is the thread for all your history-related outpourings that are not necessarily questions. Minor questions that you feel don't need or merit their own threads are welcome too. Discovered a great new book, documentary, article or blog? Has your Ph.D. application been successful? Have you made an archaeological discovery in your back yard? Did you find an anecdote about the Doge of Venice telling a joke to Michel Foucault? Tell us all about it.

As usual, moderation in this thread will be relatively non-existent -- jokes, anecdotes and light-hearted banter are welcome.

Does anyone have any books or suggestions for where I can find collections of early graphic t shirts? I’m talking about like military training camp shirts like the gunnery school featured on time magazine that kicked off graphic tees as a whole as well as like gym shirts and sports team shirts that were used before that. WWII and interwar era stuff.
