My Call to the Hall
 
Next week will mark the 10 year anniversary of making my first piece of art from cut baseball cards, and I am excited to be celebrating it in a pretty cool way. My 1955 Topps Sandy Koufax will be permanently displayed in the National Baseball Hall of Fame. Can't wait to get up to Cooperstown and see it on the wall!

Wow Tim... that is so cool.

There are likely not many of us here who have anything personal in the Hall. :D

Sincere congratulations.

T206Collector 02-01-2019 05:58 AM

Congratulations for your newfound immortality!

MVSNYC 02-01-2019 06:22 AM

Fantastic! Congrats Tim!

3 years ago the Hall’s acquisitions committee unanimously voted to accept a drawing done by my dad, as a donation (these things get voted on, they don’t just accept any donation).

Tim, what an amazing honor!

TimCarrollArt 02-01-2019 07:47 AM

Again, everyone, I can't thank you all enough!

invest 02-01-2019 07:55 AM

congrats!!

Fred 02-01-2019 09:12 AM

Congratulations. The art you create is pretty awesome.

ramram 02-01-2019 10:06 AM

Incredible work! And, to think you found a way to make some use of the worthless over-produced modern cards is a tremendous bonus.

Yastrzemski Sports 02-01-2019 10:17 AM

Good for you. Let me know when it’s up so I can go admire it.

Tim Kindler 02-01-2019 03:34 PM

Congrats!
 
Awesome achievement! I enjoyed seeing your work at last year's National!
Enjoy your experience at Cooperstown!

EvilKing00 02-01-2019 09:03 PM

That is so awesome tim!!! Very exciting congrats

MichelaiTorres83 02-03-2019 06:20 PM

How much does one of these cost if I wanted a specific card made and what size are they for that price?

One last question, will you ensure 1 of 1 on the card fronts you do and would you also consider doing the cards back?

Going there for induction weekend in July. Will look for it.

TimCarrollArt 02-06-2019 09:23 AM

I appreciate it, everyone! If you are able to make it up there before me, I would love to see some photos of it on the wall from varying angles!

Shot you a PM with the lengthy details, but absolutely....each image is done once and once only. There are so many cards I want to get to in my lifetime, and I care nothing about sitting in front of the same exact image 70-100+ hours more than once.:)

TimCarrollArt 05-02-2019 05:49 PM

For anyone that’s interested, here’s an article on the Hall’s site about the inclusion of the artwork in the Shoebox Treasures exhibit:

Who knew you could cut so many corners and still make it to the Big Time?

Leon 05-07-2019 11:38 AM

Congrats, well done.
