The latest in our series of framed limited edition prints celebrating the 250th anniversary of the founding of our nation.

We started the series last year with The Boston Tea Party. This year's framed print recognizes the 250th anniversary of the first Continental Congress, which was held in Carpenters' Hall in Philadelphia.

  • Screen printed and limited to 74 prints. 
  • Signed and numbered by the artist, Larry Stuart.
  • Made in America, including the printing and the frame and glazing, and of course designed in America and shipped from right here in New England.
  • Purchasers have the first opportunity to get the next year's print. We'll print 75 of the 2025 print, 76 of the 2026 print, and so on.  

And we won't stop in 2026. We will continue through the Revolution. After all, we needed to not just declare independence but win our independence, and our annual prints will mark one historic event each year.

Historic event behind the design

George Washington's Mount Vernon website wrote a comprehensive historical background about The First Continental Congress in September 5, 1774.

Written by Katherine Horan of George Washington University, the article explores the events leading to the Congress, its key decisions, and its lasting impact on American independence. Read the complete article here.

Shipping

 

For shipments to addresses within the U.S. (scroll down for International shipping) 

Flat-rate shipping: Regardless of the number of items you order, the shipping price for shirts, caps, unframed prints and posters, bracelets, lapel pins, pendants, and button packs is $5.95.

For hooded and crewneck sweatshirts, mugs, and blankets, the shipping cost is $8.95. 

Our flat rate shipping means you can add two or more t-shirts, sweatshirts, or caps for no additional shipping charge.

Note that some large or heavy items, including larger framed prints, may have a different shipping charge or a shipping surcharge. When they do, it will be noted on the product page.

 

Timing

We try to ship orders within three business days of receiving them. This applies to in-stock items. Framed items or items requiring personalization may take up to two weeks longer. If there is an extended delay, it will be noted on the product page.

We close for a week over Independence Day and Christmas. A notice will appear at the top of every page of the site in advance of this closure.

We ship most orders via USPS, so if the post office is closed, we won't be shipping orders that day.

If you need to receive your order by a certain date, such as to give as a gift or have for a trip, we recommend ordering at least two weeks in advance, especially if you are using USPS shipping. 

If you're looking for reliable, on-time deliveries, we strongly suggest upgrading to "UPS 3 Business Day Select Shipping."

Additional notes:

  • When fulfillment takes longer, such as around the Christmas holidays, we'll put up an announcement in the site and will list recommended shipping deadlines below.
  • If an item is out of stock, we will contact you.
  • If one of your items is an advance order, that will be noted on the product page along with an estimate of when it will ship. If that estimated date changes, the product page will be updated.
