In June, the Smithsonian Enterprises Product Development and Licensing team launched the first official Smithsonian store on CafePress.com.
If you're not familiar with Cafe Press, it's an online shop that sells user-generated products such as t-shirts, mugs, notebooks and much more.
Among the debut collections in the Smithsonian's store is a selection of seed catalog art from the Libraries' very own trade literature collection in the National Museum of American History Library. You can buy a variety of products featuring our popular catalog covers, including this totebag decorated with a quaint Peter Henderson & Co illustration:
You can even purchase merchandise with the Smithsonian Libraries logo! How about sporting your Libraries pride with a trendy Sigg waterbottle?
Check out the entire line of Smithsonian wares at Cafe Press! The Libraries receives a portion of the proceeds from all items featuring our images.—Erin Clements Rushing

Yesterday I emailed a request for product. I think it would be wonderful to have a postcard book featuring the Seed Catalog Art. Here’s hoping!
