Abraham Lincoln: T-Shirt Superstar

Posted by laura on 12/13/2007

The ABE/JFK hoodie was recently featured in Fantastic Blognanza! Whether the links between the two gents are a real conspiracy or a coincidence makes the hoodie more than a fashion statement and this Indie t-shirt blog is totally lovin' it.

Sixteenth president of the United States. The Great Liberator. Preserver of the Union. Possibly the greatest president in U.S. history. And a man with impeccable taste in facial hair. Behold Abraham Lincoln: t-shirt superstar...

Rounding up today’s peek into the past is this more cryptic offering from Art In The Age Of Mechanical Reproduction. Rather than nerdifying iconic historical figures, AAMR instead chooses to surreptitiously whisper conspiracy theories to people via eye-catching apparel. They list some telling coincidences between the deaths of these two presidents at the hoodie’s product page, and to be honest, I think they’re onto something. You know, for a few months now, I’ve been setting up this undergr—say, do you hear helicopters?
Well, whether you know Mr. Lincoln’s personal affairs down to a T or whether you’re content in making up stuff about someone you’ve never met, you’ve got to admit—the Lincolnator ain’t going anywhere anytime soon!
