Prism Philly Decade of Champs: Clarke, Erving, Schmidt, Perez

[otismalibu]

Prism 1986 Decade of Champions litho signed (pencil) by Bobby Clarke, Julius Erving, Mike Schmidt and artist Dick Perez. Measures 25.75” x 21” and is numbered 364/500.

I was told that Prism carried home games of the Flyers, Sixers and Phillies and sold these prints (during a Phillies broadcast) as part of their 10th anniversary celebration. I have no paperwork so I’m not sure what this originally sold for. Dick Perez thought they went for either $200 or $250.

There is some slight discoloration around the perimeter, from the original mat. Would be covered with same sized mat.

$249 shipped.

Wow, very cool piece.

It is a nice piece...good looking autos. I may have it priced too high. The last one I saw on eBay went for $375 shipped, but it was matted and framed.
There's also a poster version with pre-printed autos of the players.

Bump. Price lowered.

$250 is a good price for that. I think there was one in Hunt and Legendary this week

I live in the Philadelphia television market. Some more background on Prism: They were a premium movie network like an HBO, but the network also broadcast Philadelphia pro sports, Philadelphia Big Five college basketball and WWF professional wrestling from the Spectrum. The show also ran a weekly sports talk show called "The Great Sports Debate," which featured local radio personalities from the WIP all-sports station in Philadelphia.

More than the sports, though, I can remember that Prism used to run some movies late Friday/Saturday nghts that a 16-year-old or 18 year-old male would find rather, um, interesting.

The network met its end when Comcast bought Prism's parent company and started an all-sports network in town that continues to exst to this day.

I'm in my mid-30s and grew up in Berks County. We had a subscription to Prism. Remember watching Phillies, Flyers, Sixers games but also Wings games, too, every once in a while. And yes, those Saturday night late night movies were always interesting.

Not often an announcer called three of four sports in a city, the late great Jim Barniak.......
