Collectively,
those above shared neither political party, gender, religion,
ethnicity, avocation, education, origins, or even epoch in which they lived.
What they shared was a collective consciousness, and
the faith that the United States, with its several flaws, is still the closest
thing to an ideal state. These
Americana plaques are offered for all of those who share that belief and wish
to celebrate it.
Prices shown are well below MSRP. Even so, if you find a better offer we'll likely surpass it. You'll find
more patriotic plaques concerning the historic events of 9/11, and the
heroic Firefighters, Emergency Service Workers and Policemen who labored
there, and all across America then & since on
Patriotic Tributes I. On
Patriotic Tributes II: Patriotic plaques &
military emblems
observing contributions of
U.S. veterans in various
conflicts & service branches.
