Atlanta, Georgia: A Moment in History Captured

This striking sticker presents a visual snapshot of a critical moment in American history: a Federal picket post in Atlanta, Georgia, shortly before the pivotal Battle of July 22, 1864. The artwork likely depicts a scene of stark realism, bringing to life the tension and strategic vigilance that characterized the lead-up to the battle.

A Vigilant Watch: The Essence of the Design

The design likely centers on Union soldiers, embodying the Federal army, in their role as sentinels. Their posture, weaponry, and placement would convey their readiness, reflecting the constant threat and anticipation of the approaching conflict. The visual elements may include details of the soldiers' uniforms, arms, and surrounding environment, like hastily erected fortifications or the familiar terrain of the outskirts of Atlanta. These subtle hints provide context and atmosphere, helping the viewer imagine the scene.

Symbolism of the Picket Post

The central image of the picket post is rich with meaning. It embodies vigilance, foresight, and the strategic importance of this advanced guard. The visual emphasis on the sentinels' watchfulness signifies the Union's preparedness and strategic thinking. By showcasing this scene, the sticker is also a tribute to the soldiers who faced the dangers and uncertainty of war, and their contribution to the ultimate outcome. The design, therefore, acts as a visual representation of both tactical strategy and human resilience during the tumultuous Atlanta Campaign.

Glossy kiss-cut vinyl stickers made for smooth, indoor surfaces — laptops, journals, mirrors, and other finished items. Crisp edges, vivid color, strong hold, and not waterproof.

What “kiss-cut” means: the blade cuts the vinyl layer into the exact shape while leaving the backing liner whole, so pieces separate cleanly and lift off the sheet without tearing. It’s the neatest way to produce shaped stickers and multi-piece sheets.

  • Material: reliable vinyl face with a permanent acrylic adhesive formulated for smooth, non-porous surfaces.
  • Finish: glossy surface that enhances contrast and depth without feeling overly reflective.
  • Printing: eco-solvent inks provide dense color and crisp detail for fine lines and gradients.
  • Use case: intended for indoor environments only — not waterproof. Not recommended for continuous exposure to moisture or dishwashing.
  • Application friendly: easy-peel backing and a liner that releases cleanly to help reduce bubbles and misfeeds during placement.

These stickers perform best on smooth, dust-free surfaces — think laptop lids, sealed notebooks, glass, mirrors, finished shelving and lockers. They’ll stick well where the surface is flat and clean; avoid rough wood, silicone, fabric, and heavily textured paint.

  1. Clean: remove dust and oils with a lint-free cloth. For stubborn grime, use a mild soap and water rinse; let the area dry completely.
  2. Align: peel a corner, position carefully, then press the center down first.
  3. Smooth: work outward from the center with a soft card or a thumb to push air out and ensure the edges set down firmly.

Tip: give the adhesive 24 hours to fully settle before heavy handling. These are not designed for outdoor or wet conditions.

  • Gently dust with a soft, dry cloth, moving from the center outward to avoid scratching the gloss.
  • For light marks, a barely damp microfiber will lift residue — blot, don’t scrub, and dry right away.
  • Avoid bleach, solvents, abrasive pads, and steam; moisture or harsh chemicals can lift edges and fade inks.

Reminder: these stickers are not waterproof. Keep them away from sinks, outdoor exposure, and dishwasher cycles to maintain adhesion and finish.

Sizes are measured across the sticker’s longest side. For example, a 3″ sticker is 3 inches across its largest dimension (height or width, depending on the shape).

The kiss-cut follows the sticker’s outline for a tidy border; complex shapes can show small variances, but the advertised measurement refers to the maximum edge-to-edge length.
