The origins of the Unemployed Philosophers Guild are shrouded in mystery.
Some accounts trace our birth to Athens in the latter half of the 4th century BCE. Allegedly, several lesser philosophers
grew weary of the endless Socratic dialogue endemic to their trade and turned to crafting household implements and playthings. (Hence the assertions that Socrates quaffed his poisonous hemlock from one of the Unemployed Philosophers Guild’s designs, and the violent debate surrounding the question of whether it was a traditional chalice or a “disappearing” chalice.)
Legends of the Unemployed Philosophers Guild resurfaced in the High Middle Ages, when UPG entered the world of
commerce by selling novelty items to pilgrims on long lines for the restroom. Business boomed until 1211 when Pope Innocent III condemned our bawdy History of the Toga drinking cups – after which, unsurprisingly, business
boomed even more. Though half of our membership was burned at the stake for depictions of Plato in a low-cut cloak and mini-toga, they went to their demise insisting it was art.
More recently, the ancient and venerable Unemployed Philosophers Guild was revived in the early 1990s, a time when
it was still cool to live in New York City’s Lower East Side. Two brothers turned their advanced degrees, creativity, and love of paying rent to fulfilling the people’s needs for finger puppets, warm slippers, coffee cups, and cracking up at stuff.
As you peruse this brochure, you’ll discover plenty of brainy entertainment. Our inspiring collection
of great thinkers, dazzling artists and scientists, and unforgettable cultural icons will delight and inspire even your most hard-to-please customers.
Welcome to the Unemployed Philosophers Guild.
We have brilliant gifts.

Will you look at the time?
And when you do, will you be staring at a computer screen or squinting at your phone?
Why not gaze lovingly at one of our smart and stylish Watches instead?
UPG makes dozens of smart and funny ways to give someone the time of day, whether they love the arts and sciences, classic photography, or the fun of looking at a watch that looks back.
With so many ways to measure the day, you won’t think about time the same way again.

Justice League of America Quotable Notable Box SetThis boxed set includes die-cut note cards of Aquaman, Batman, The Flash, Green Lantern, Martian Manhunter, Superman, and Wonder Woman. Comes with sticker sheets filled with super greetings, super images, and super quotes! #4208
The Unemployed Philosophers Guild teamed up with dc comics and created an entire line of classic superhero items you won’t find anyplace else!
We didn’t merely slap the same old images on the same old products! After our painstaking development (okay, we read comic books), we created superhero-worthy versions of UPG’s signature lines – finger puppets and stationery, traditional and transforming mugs – featuring classic Silver Age DC Comics characters.
We think you’ll agree the result is colorful, fun – and even inspiring. All those overtime hours reading comic books (I mean, “research”) were totally worth it.
Sold in multiples of 24/style.
MintsDC Comics mints keep your breath fresh. Featuring Batman (so cool!), Wonder Woman (so mighty!), Superman (so strong!) – and The Joker! Your minty secret is safe with us.
