Born on the Fourth

America turns 250 this year, which is long enough for a nation to acquire a history, a mythology, and a surprising number of excellent things. Some are iconic. Some have been hiding in plain sight for decades. AIR SUPPLY’s Independence Day edit celebrates the objects, institutions, and enduring classics that remain distinctly American—regardless of where one lands on the state of the union.
