Superb lithograph by Jerome F. Ryan, color image of the famous 1980 US Olympic team as they celebrate their unbelievable victory over the vaunted Soviet Union ice hockey team in Lake Placid. Entitled, "Do You Believe in Miracles?" It is signed by 14 members of the team and coach Herb Brooks in black Sharpie, and the bottom left corner has "Artists Proof" while the opposite side bears the signature of artist Jerome F. Ryan, both in pencil. Signatures include goalie Jim Craig, Mark Johnson and many others. Measures 30x37.5" including matting and frame. Historical footnote - while the improbable victory over the USSR is what is most remembered, the USA did not clinch the gold until defeating Finland in the following game.
