Description

BARTOLO COLON Portrait Baseball. Original pen and ink drawings on vintage baseball; signed by the artist. ***Ageless wonder, Bartolo Colón, continues to deliver the top caliber baseball and entertainment. Appropriately commemorate his extraordinary career with this original, classic art work.***Artist Richard Righter has captured some of the great stars of baseball and created a tribute to the game using part of the game. Each baseball is collected from local ballparks, antique stores or other sources, meticulously cleaned, conditioned, dried and prepped; then the portrait is drawn with black ink for a unique, vintage appearance. The idea for these art-balls came while collecting used baseballs and a desire to better preserve their inherent character and enhance "displayability." Start your collection with Mets ageless pitching wonder, Bartolo Colón. In a rotation of incredible talent and youth, Colón has been the anchor of experience and stability. Incredibly the 43 year old veteran has won the most games and was critical to the Mets' first Division title in nearly a decade. This baseball was chosen for ideal wear and aging for vintage appeal, providing an appropriately timeless, classic element to this modern star collectible artwork. Makes a great gift for collectors and baseball fans. On the front panel is Bartolo Colón's detailed portrait, and on the left side panel an additional sketch of him in action pitching. On right and back panels are name, NY logo and stats. Artwork is designed to stand alone as is, however for those who desire a truly unique piece for autograph, sweet spot remains open. See photos for details. Shipped by Priority Mail with tracking included.
