1776 "Join, or Die" Revolutionary War flag with 13 colonies, snake & no colors by Benjamin Franklin Notebook

A segmented serpent in black ink coils across a cream ground, each section labeled with colonial initials, while bold text reads "JOIN, or DIE" along the right edge. The composition echoes Benjamin Franklin's famous 1754 political cartoon, rendered in a classical woodcut style within a double-lined border that evokes aged parchment and Revolutionary-era print traditions. Bound with 52 pages of 70lb paper, lined or unlined, behind an anti-scuff matte cover with wraparound artwork, made to order. Notes and sketches kept behind an independent artist's work, not a plain composition cover.
