Past meets present in this tribute to Mickey Mantle, designed by artist Joshua Vides as part of Topps' 70th Anniversary celebration, "Project 70." A work of art, the central image is in Vides' trademark style, overlaying an original image in white and outlining key parts in black marker. Framed to 12x15", the artwork itself is composed of marker on carbon fibre paper and measures 8x10", signed on the bottom by Vides and dated 2021; it is a 1-of-1. Superb crossover between sports and pop culture featuring the Yankees legend and the artist who designed for companies such as Fendi; imagine having an artist like Keith Haring do the work for a baseball card in the 1990s. Also comes with an example of the card, numbered 4/100, also signed by Vides and dated 2021.
