You should start hiding a Mike Cubbage in each piece you do from now on, so it will become your version of Al Hirschfeld's "NINA."

Devon White always seems to get into the pieces, although I have no particular reason for putting him there. Otis Nixon, Bob Welch, and Franklin Stubbs are others that pop up often.

Always thought Nixon was more of a ground ball guy...

Thank you for taking the time to post this, Adam! I wasn't able to get up there this weekend, but will be making the trek soon. Look forward to meeting you while I'm in town.

I’ll see you when you get here. Can’t wait until mine is done. It’s going to look awesome.

Here's my latest finished commission. Hank Aaron custom; 28" x 22". Hope to see many of you in Chicago during the National!
