Peace!

Isn't it amazing that the Peace symbol is 50 years old? It was designed in 1958 by Gerald Holtom, a professional, Brit designer. He designed it for the Easter march of the Direct Action Committee Against Nuclear War. Today, his design is the universal symbol for Peace.

You know what's really cool though? The symbol is based on semaphoric or flag signals for the letters N and D (It's true! It's true! I Googled it!). In a semaphore, N is formed by a person holding two flags in an inverted V. The letter D, on the other hand, is morphed by holding one flag pointing up and the other, pointing down. When you superimpose and encircle these two signals, you get the Peace sign! An ace design, indeed, and if you ask me, quite smashing, really!

So, go ahead, wear the talk! Mean what you say and wear what you mean. It's a Tudy thing. And while you're at it, here's a special Tudy T to celebrate the occasion.

Peace out, people!
