  • These royal blue crewsocks with cream accents are nothing short of a work of art! The highlight of these socks is the beautiful portrait of famous pioneer of aviation Amelia Earhart. With her determined expression, aviator scarf and leather flight jacket, it seems as though she's about to embark on another daring adventure.

    What truly sets these socks apart is the presence of National Archives branding on the foot. The National Archives preserves and celebrates the heritage of this American icon in its holdings, including photography, artwork, and the radio log of Amelia Earhart's last communications with the US Coast Guard cutter Itasca.

  • In 1937, Amelia Earhart was a household name. She was known for her extraordinary achievements in aviation, had written best-selling books, and was an active supporter of the Equal Rights Amendment. At the height of her celebrity she vanished. Somewhere in the South Pacific, aboard the Lockheed Electra 10E airplane on which they were attempting to circumnavigate the globe, 39-year-old Amelia Earhart and flight navigator Fred Noonan disappeared on July 2, 1937.

    In the holdings of the National Archives there are approximately 10 billion pages of textual records; 12 million maps, charts, and architectural and engineering drawings; 25 million still photographs and graphics; 24 million aerial photographs; 300,000 reels of motion picture film; 400,000 video and sound recordings; and 133 terabytes of electronic data. All of these materials are preserved because they are important to the workings of Government, have long-term research worth, or provide information of value to citizens.
