A modern print of the Preamble to the Constitution of the United States, available in variety of sizes and colors
“We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.”
After four months of discussion, debate, and sometimes tense negotiations and compromising, the delegates to the Constitutional Convention emerged from Independence Hall in Philadelphia with a document — a Constitution — outlining a new government for the nascent United States. The first sentence of that document, the Preamble, described the convention’s and the Constitution’s lofty goals. The Preamble does not necessarily carry legal weight, but its philosophical and moral weight can hardly be overstated. Today, over 230 years later, these words are perhaps more meaningful than ever.
This modern print celebrates the Preamble and serves as a reminder of the ambitions — many still unrealized — of the United States and its Constitution.
The print is available in 9 sizes and 16 color combinations:

Frequently Asked Questions
Custom and personalized orders
I love to receive custom orders! Additionally, each item can typically be printed at a custom size. Please contact me via the custom orders link in my shop for pricing and additional information and to get your custom order started today.
Wholesale availability
Bulk and wholesale pricing is available. Please contact me for additional information.
Terms for digital orders
For digital orders, the following terms apply. Electronic files are provided for your personal, noncommercial use only. You may print copies solely for your use in a home, classroom, or office setting. You may make and keep only the electronic copies of these files that you may need for future use or reference, and you may store them only on your own computers or in your own accounts on servers or the cloud. These files should not be modified in any way, compiled with other electronic files, or transmitted to others by any electronic or internet means.
Prints are not framed
Please note that, to keep my costs low and to pass those savings on to you, prints are not framed. All prints are shipped rolled in sturdy shipping tubes.
Please note
I strive to fulfill all orders, including custom orders, as quickly as possible—typically within one day for items I have in stock. However, please note that I am a stay-at-home dad to three small children and they come first (if they don’t, they are quick to let me know that my priorities are out of order). So if I am delayed in delivering your order, particularly a custom order, please be patient and understanding. Thank you!
Packing slip
To save weight on shipments, which saves shipping costs, as well as to reduce paper waste, I do not include a packing slip with my shipments. If you would like a packing slip included in your shipment, please message me at the time you place your order. If you need a packing slip for a past order, please message me and I will be happy to provide one for download in PDF.
Free shipping
When free shipping is offered on an item, note that it will be shipped via the lowest-cost service, even if you select a higher-cost service (such as USPS Priority Mail) at checkout.
Not all the items I ordered arrived in the package I received. Where is the rest of my order?
Please note that, because of the various production techniques I use, some orders may arrive in two or more separate packages. You will receive tracking information for each package when it ships.
I purchased the digital version of one of your prints by accident. Can I get a refund?
Yes — as long as you haven’t downloaded it yet (and yes, I can see on my end whether you’ve downloaded it or not). If you’ve purchased the digital version by accident, DO NOT DOWNLOAD IT and let me know of the error. We’ll make it right through a refund or exchange, or by figuring out another solution. But once you download the PDF, your purchase can’t be refunded, because there’s no reliable way for me to verify that you’ve deleted the downloaded file from your computer or other storage devices.
