The shot above comes from one of the many, many massive prints over at Pop Chart Labs. It breaks down the taxonomy of almost 500 teams (including Majors, Minor, Independent, Negro Leagues, and more), and is really something you can lose a half hour looking at. It’s available for purchase over here, along with the compendium of basketball jerseys and a massive 60” x 40” chart of hip-hop names that you could waste hours in.
