I was putzing around the internet today, and stumbled upon historyshots.com, which has a few pretty nifty prints available. Given how many people around here are interested in some of the subject matter (history, politics, etc), I figured I'd share:

History of the Political Parties I & II:

I think it's pretty slick how they move the parties up and down the Y axis as their influence waxes and wanes. They also have (some) important events, who was President at the time, etc.

US Army Divisions in World War II:

History of the Confederate Army:

They've got some other nifty stuff; prints on sports (no football, or I would have posted it), Race to the Moon, etc. Neat stuff, but not cheap.
