Pardon me, if you don't mind me taking a few artsy pictures of the finished product sitting on top of all the hacked up cards ...





And last but not least, a pic of it with my autographed baseball ...


After I finish some projects, I'm left with an "eh" feeling ... where others, I think WOW! I love looking at this! This is one of those WOW pieces for my collection. I really enjoy looking at it. I hope to get a holder for it soon - which, by the way, measures just over 11 inches long and is just over 3 1/2 inches tall.

Thanks for reading!

Inkredible!

Only question I have is why aren't you working for a baseball card company.

Thanks a ton, guys! Once I get it in a holder, I'm sure I'll post a pic here showing it.

Love your work, My Goodness My Guiness Brilliant!

One criticism is the Mike Moore signature, chosen from his years with the AL West rival Mariners. One season he lost 19 with them. Not only that, but the signature you chose happened to have "Mariners" emblazoned across the sig. Was this meant to be provocative? Just my opinion.

Thanks for the kind words! I could certainly always redo that part if I found a better signature of his (this was the best I could find after looking forever in terms of size), but it may be months/years for that to happen. Remember that it isn't just quality of signature; it is size, too. I believe his is the last one I was able to find. Honestly though, if I found a perfectly sized autograph on his in white, I don't think I'd change it out.

Aside from that though, I think that is part of what adds to the charm of this piece; yeah, many of the others you can't tell they are from other teams - Parker from the Pirates, Eck from the Indians, Gallego the Cardinals, Weiss w/the Rockies, but this piece is all about taking "pieces from different puzzles" to create something truly unique. I love the over all colors of everything.

The journey of finding things that were a few dollars to create quite possibly my favorite piece in my collection has been really rewarding!

Thank you again for the kind words - I hope to create more cool things in the future

Beautiful piece!
