Wagner2

Prisma color pencil on Canson paper

I got the wild hair to do a fine art representation of "The card"

This is of course the famous Honus Wagner baseball card of the T206 tobacco card set issued in the early part of the century, in fact this year and the next two are the 100th year anniversary of the set. The cards are very striking when found in good condition as they are brightly colored and were created with a process called chromolithography. The actual cards are comprised of approximately 8 colors and a black or dark brown halftone layer to create the image.
