Seller's description

Sold my hair. You sold your watch. A chibi storybook-watercolor Gift of the Magi tee for English teachers, book lovers, couples and anyone who has gone all in on a gift.

THE STORY BEHIND IT
O. Henry's short story The Gift of the Magi first appeared in The New York Sunday World on December 10, 1905, and was collected in The Four Million in 1906. On Christmas Eve, a poor young couple, Della and Jim, each give up a prized possession to buy the other a present: Della sells her long hair to buy Jim a platinum chain for his gold watch, and Jim sells the watch to buy Della a set of jeweled combs for her hair. The narrator ends by calling givers like them the wisest of all.

WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT
- Funny Gift of the Magi shirt: the watercolor chibi couple Della, with a short wavy brown bob, a brown dress and a long watch chain in her hands, and Jim, with tousled brown hair, a small beard, a dark coat, waistcoat and tie and a gift box of combs, say "Sold my hair. You sold your watch."
- For English and literature teachers, book lovers, couples, anniversary and Christmas gifts and anyone who loves a classic short story
- Big, bold speech-bubble joke, with the design printed about 10½ to 11½ inches wide, depending on size, so it reads across the room
- Original chibi watercolor art by Honeyman Tees: Della's short wavy brown bob, brown dress and long watch chain; Jim's tousled brown hair, small beard, dark coat, waistcoat and tie, and a gift box of combs
- Soft, comfy tee, made to order and printed to last
