She came loaded for the Fourth. The 1907 P. Sander Rocket Girl — blonde, determined, seated on a giant firecracker with ribbons streaming and sparks flying — is one of the finest pieces of American holiday chromolithography ever produced. The embossed metallic cord, the confetti scatter, the deep slate sky. The Faded Label Co. put it on a garment-dyed unisex tank.
Printed on a Comfort Colors 9360 garment-dyed unisex tank — lightweight, relaxed fit, soft vintage wash finish. 100% ring-spun cotton. DTG printed. Machine wash cold, tumble dry low. Available in multiple colors — sizes XS through 3XL.
P. Sander of New York produced some of the most technically accomplished Fourth of July postcards in the early 1900s market. The 1907 Rocket Girl card required extraordinary registration accuracy — the metallic cord embossing, the confetti scatter, and the eight-color chromolithographic print all had to align perfectly across multiple press passes. The copyright notice reads: Copyright 1907 P. Sander N.Y. The card is public domain. The craftsmanship is timeless.
The perfect gift for vintage Americana collectors, Fourth of July enthusiasts, lovers of early 20th century illustration and postcard art, fans of P. Sander chromolithography, and anyone who thinks the holiday deserves its best artwork.
The Faded Label Co. — keeping the golden age of American art alive, one product at a time.
