"Operation Market Garden" Shirt
"Operation Market Garden" Shirt
"The Market-Garden t-shirt is a hugely successful tribute to the largest airborne operation in history! The valiant struggle of the combined American, British and Polish airborne and British ground forces was a bold and ambitious campaign to “end the war by Christmas!” Unfortunately the mission failed to meet that goal but not for want of courage, sacrifice and tenacity of the allies. Get your Market-Garden T-Shirt today and help keep the memory of those brave troops alive!" – Tom C.
Commemorating the 75th anniversary of Operation Market Garden, our exclusive design is based on historic photos of the airborne assault, the largest of World War II.
On the front, paratroopers descending. On the back, "Market Garden", "75", and the dates September 17, 1944 and September 17, 2019.
The original photos were not sharp and clear. The image, somewhat hazy, is perfect across the front of the shirt.
The shirt: A super soft 4.3 ounce t-shirt from Next Level that is 60% cotton / 40% polyester jersey and that has been pre-washed to reduce shrinkage. If you have never worn a high-quality poly-cotton shirt before, you’ll want to read this first.
Also available, a World War II on the Homefront - large print with images of 100+ WWII posters.

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.

My brother is a WWII buff and enjoyed receiving this for Christmas. The design is pretty subtle but obviously also pretty epic. Like all History List shirts, it’s very soft!
LOVE this shirt. It is so soft and fits perfectly. I ordered one for my husband and myself. He was a paratrooper and really admires the photograph used. Such a unique shirt!
Great shirt! Great quality! Fast shipping! My son is going to love it!
The order came in the promised time, the promised size, and the promised quality. I do recommend The History List for shopping
I purchased this shirt as a Christmas gift for my son who served in Special Forces in Afghanistan. A great tribute to airborne forces
Once again, outstanding products, great prices and great service. Thank you!
My son loves his new Operation Garden T-shirts. The parachute picture is great.
The shirts are great!
