Finally got some time back in the studio after a lot of travel…a new giant gum stick in the works. #baseballcard #baseballcardart #popart #baseballcardartist #kengriffeyjr #seattlemariners #topps #rookie #pink #bubblegum #gum #bazooka #matthewleerosen https://www.instagram.com/p/B8oXzbGBvta/?igshid=svs8pka8d3t5

Happy T-Giving! I’m thankful for the opportunity to produce this fun series of bats with @pillboxbatco The final one is named “Full Count.” I was inspired by the @jumbotronart book to celebrate the pixels of the old digital scoreboards… topped off with a funky 70’s font on the handle. #baseballbats #chicagocubs #wrigleyfield #topps #donruss #baseballcardartContinue reading

My second Bubble Burst piece! When @topps stopped including gum in ‘92, ironically the baseball card bubble began to burst due to massive overproduction in the mid 80’s & early 90’s. Gross evidence exists with the Topps Micro set in 1992… as if there weren’t enough cards on the market already! They reprinted the entireContinue reading

Looking through pics of my work from the year… really love the combo of colors I used on Rollie to rep his time with the @padres & @brewers Original artwork by #MatthewLeeRosen #topps #toppsbaseballcards #70s #80s #80svintage #80sfashion #plexiglass #plexiglassart #sandiego #sandiegopadres #padres #milwaukee #milwaukeebrewers #brewers #rolliefingers #rolaids #mustache #handlebarmustache #baseballart #baseballcards #baseballcardart #baseballcardartist #popartContinue reading

@r6d4 and I decided to trade some art! He’s a fan of the early 80’s big beards, mustaches and afros… and Oscar Gamble’s ‘82 @topps was a memorable part of his childhood. Oscar’s massive hair may have been iconic for his time, but his words are immortal, “They don’t think it be like it is,Continue reading

When @topps stopped including gum in ‘92, the baseball card bubble began to burst due to overproduction of cards in the 80’s from multiple manufacturers (Donruss, Fleer, Score, Upper Deck). The strike-cancelled World Series in ’94 was the last pin to drop.

Happy 4th! Bust out your explosives… In 1992, after forty years of creating wax packs, @topps stopped including gum and switched to a white card stock with a plastic wrapper. Ironically, this is when the baseball card bubble began to burst. Made with 1992 Topps… featuring #GregMaddux #BoJackson #RickeyHenderson #CraigBiggio and others. Original artwork byContinue reading

The best stache in baseball belongs to HOFer Rollie Fingers… 3x World Series champ, MVP, Cy Young, and 4x Rolaids Relief Man winner. Three of those Rolaids awards came with San Diego and the 4th with Milwaukee. I used 1978, 81, 83 and 85 @topps to make this piece.
