In 1991 the Smithsonian Institution Traveling Exhibition Service (SITES) and the Ohio State University Library for Communication and Graphic Arts assembled "Great American Comics: 100 Years of Cartoon Art."
The exhibition was a collection of the finest comic art from the past century. This Calvin and Hobbes shirt is from the exhibition and is the only legal Calvin shirt ever produced.
