Thanks for sharing - lithos are great, but you can't beat the original photo!

Default size?

I must be misunderstanding something. It says this photo is 5x the size of a card yet it's approximately 3 7/8" x 5 1/2"? This isn't one cut from a larger composite is it? Just curious......I am sure I am not seeing something correctly....Iconic picture for sure.

Default 100 percent cut from composite

I am certain it was cut from a Pittsburgh team composite. It looks exactly like my examples cut from composites and the back looks like the cardboard backing my photos are on.

Packs- thanks for the back up. I copied this thread to the main forum page for a few more views. Everyone really should know what they are bidding on.

Based on the size and the fact it has rough edges and and no borders, it's kind of obvious that it was cut down from a display piece. It's a great photograph and will get a lot of attention, but it's not a cabinet and should not be called one.

I still think an original Horner is an original Horner. I'd rather have one of his mounted photos but sometimes you have to make due.
