She’s My Dear John – 1940s Lesbian T-Shirt, Vintage Wartime Love Gift
She’s My Dear John T-shirt featuring embroidered-style artwork of a 1940s lesbian couple in a moment of bittersweet connection — a letter clutched, a goodbye hanging in the air. 💌 This design is a loving twist on the traditional wartime “Dear John” trope — because this time, the letter is from her, and the love runs just as deep.
Made for romantics, writers, dreamers, and the woman who waits — or the one worth waiting for. ✍️
