William Henry Harrison 'Tippecanoe and Tyler Too' 1840 Presidential Campaign T-Shirt
The ""Tippecanoe and Tyler Too"" campaign of William Henry Harrison represents America's initiation into the modern era of political election spectacle, replete with spin and screeching hyperbole. In 1840, determined to oust the Democrats, the Whig party packaged William Henry Harrison as a heroic and passionate advocate for the common man, despite dubious evidence. They wrote songs and newsletters, arranged parades and rallies, and produced every manner of kitschy keepsake imaginable. Harrison won the election, only to die a month after taking office - the shortest term of any president. Our drawing reflects the style of political art of that era, and is carefully distressed to create an authentic look. Finally, it's printed on light Georgia clay-colored, ultra-soft, vintage-style tees that have been washed and machine-grinded for a unique ""destroyed"" look.
