Join or Die: A Call for Unity in the Pursuit of Freedom
One of America’s earliest and most powerful symbols, Benjamin Franklin’s “Join or Die” cartoon was originally published in 1754 as a call for colonial unity during the French and Indian War. The divided snake represented the fragmented American colonies, and Franklin’s message was clear: without unity, the colonies would fall. Later, during the American Revolution, this symbol became a rallying cry for the colonists as they fought for independence and freedom from British rule.
This glass is part of our Americana Collection, capturing the spirit of early American unity and the enduring ideals of liberty and cooperation.
