Thought you all might appreciate this...
I'm an artist / designer... and I finally got to combine my love of baseball cards with my love of art / music... I did a poster last year for a band Moonalice, in which I used the 1952 Bowman set (one of my very favorites) as a frame for my illustration in the center... I arranged the cards in groupings... (eg. Pitchers with their hands above their heads, catchers, portraits with blue sky and clouds behind them, Phillies, since the leader of the group is a big Phillies' fan and (of course) Giants all in a row...since I'm a big Giants' fan and the concert was in San Francisco, etc.)... Like all Moonalice shows they distribute posters after the show... so it was a pretty cool experience...

Thank you for sharing! As a novice designer I appreciate this kind of work very much. Did you use Indesign? I'm currently piecing a sheet together for another member on these boards so I know the time it takes!

Wow, really nice work. Every time I see images of a 52 Bowman sheet, I feel like Lawrence Harvey's character in "The Manchurian Candidate" reacting to a deck full of queens of spades - my face twitches, my fingers tremble, and I have a childish urge to run down to the corner mom n' pop store and buy as many Bowman packs as my nickles allow.

Thanks!
I'm like you on that... If I could transport back in time... I'd be ready with my nickels, dimes and quarters to buy a bunch of fresh packs... that would be awesome.
