PRODUCT DESCRIPTION: As previously seen in SkyMall Catalog & the National Baseball Hall of Fame Museum Shop - here is "America's Game" baseball seams American Flag artwork straight from the artist himself, Nathan Rueckert. "America's Game" original artworks beautifully combine the love of baseball & America in a single image - an American flag hand-crafted from real used baseballs & a swatch of blue mesh baseball jersey. Each artwork is hand-numbered & signed by the artist, & is mounted on an 8"H x 10"L piece of white matboard. Artwork matted & framed to 11"H x 14"L dimensions. ABOUT THE ARTIST: in September of 2001, Artist Nathan Rueckert created a way to express his love for baseball & for America in a single image: an American flag formed from the very seams of America's game. Rueckert tore off the leather from three used baseballs & cut a swatch of navy blue mesh from an old baseball jersey & hand-crafted the very first "America's Game" original artwork. Almost immediately, Rueckert obtained necessary copyrights, & looked for more old baseballs. Since 2001, Rueckert has given new life to thousands of baseballs & has sold artworks in outlets such as The Baseball Hall of Fame Museum Shop & the Busch Stadium Cardinals Team Store. ABOUT THE ARTWORK: According to the artist, each dirty baseball has its own personality. Some balls are covered with grass stains, while others have ripped seams from a line drive hit up the middle. Each flag artwork has it's own story & leaves the baseball fan wondering how many curveballs, pickoff plays, or games of catch with dad in the backyard their flag has been through. Over 2,700 artworks have been formed, each being hand-made, hand-signed, & hand-numbered by the artist. Please note that since each artwork is a unique one-of-a kind original due to wear & tear of baseballs used, the artwork you receive will look similar, but not the same, as artwork pictured in this listing.
