Completed some fresh plexi! Very common to see a “No Pepper” sign at a baseball field. It’s a pre-game exercise where a batter uses a quick short swing to pepper balls at fielders standing nearby. It can be dangerous for spectators and also wears out the grass… so, most parks have banned it. I usedContinue reading
Barry Bonds’ record breaking 756th home run ball was purchased by fashion designer Marc Ecko for $752,467. He then defaced the ball by engraving it with an asterisk. The ball now sits in the Hall of Fame. I used 70 cards to make this… choosing 1989 Donruss. The orange backs tie Barry’s early years asContinue reading
The @mlb draft began last night… reminded me of this 1987 @topps piece… filled with former 1st round picks: Gooden, Bonds, Larkin, Clark, McGwire, Palmeiro, Clemens, Puckett… etc. #MatthewLeeRosen #baseballcards #baseballcardart #baseballcardartist #baseballart #sportsart #vintagebaseballcards #waxpack #waxpacks #oldbaseballcards #topps #toppsbaseballcards #toppsbaseball #1987 #80s #80svintage #barrybonds #markmcgwire #willclark #rogerclemens https://www.instagram.com/p/BySx_AEHxSp/?igshid=16fav9q5ag9j1
Reposting Bazooka Bo… made with 20 of his @topps traded rookies. My original post disappeared somehow?

Sad to hear about the passing of Bill Buckner at age 69. Played 22 seasons in the majors and had his best years with the Cubs. He’ll unfortunately be most remembered for his error in the 1986 World Series. I’ve used a few of his cards to make some artwork. Original artwork by #MatthewLeeRosen #toppsContinue reading
Flew home last night and completed the latest Bazooka… Diamond No. 28! This one features reprints of 1963 @topps Roberto Clemente and 1969 Nolan Ryan to highlight the backs of the cards that featured comic strips from the Bazooka Joe illustrators. Noticed a funny error on the back of Nolan’s card too…. “unleased” his fastball.Continue reading
Bazooka Bo came out pretty badass… like Bo himself. Made with 20 of his 1986 @topps traded rookie cards. Look at how thick his neck is! #1986 #1986topps #toppsbaseball #vintagebaseballcards #junkwax #80svintage #80s #topps #toppsbaseballcards #baseballcards #oldbaseballcards #bojackson #boknows #royals #kansascity #kansascityroyals https://www.instagram.com/p/BxU3D7KnZgB/?igshid=8wundbvnncx
