USS Constitution Dart of Death T-Shirt

Stand out from the crowd in this 'Dart of Death' t-shirt from USS Constitution. The image on this tee is adapted from the journal of seaman Lewis Kimberly dated from 1857 -1861. The name ‘Dart of Death’ is derived from a longer quote from an anonymous sailor’s journal, "...the dart of death hung as (if) it were trembling by a single hair and no one knew on whose head it would fall.” Both this image and quote were paired together to serve as a reminder that life aboard a 19th century war vessel could be a dangerous affair – especially in battle. Otherwise known as 'Old Ironsides,' the USS Constitution is a wooden-hulled, three-masted heavy frigate of the United States Navy, named by President George Washington after the Constitution of the United States of America. She is the world's oldest commissioned naval vessel afloat.
