I just visited my good friend Gregg Packer top pick up this beautiful artwork he did on my Bob Feller signed home plate.
I bought the plate in an auction on the cheap. It was just so plain that I knew it would be a great candidate for Gregg's talent. We discussed a few different ideas but settled on this classic shot of Rapid Robert from 1937 ( I believe from the 3 stripes on the socks). The picture was black and white but we managed to find the proper uniform colors from a book he had. I really think it came out great. You see certain images in black and white so often that when someone puts it in color it looks like something completely unseen.
