Artistry, novelty and that undefined element of wow! go into Irwin Sadler's hand-painted baseball collection (MINT). Twenty-four intricately rendered portraits of all-time greats peer out between the seams, and 17 from this 1988 set signed their ball (9/10). Each painting is a masterpiece.The worlds of art and baseball rarely collide into such brilliance. A dugout of stars is bound to appeal: Henry Aaron (signed), Casey Stengel, Pete Rose (signed), Ted Williams (signed), Joe DiMaggio (signed), Sandy Koufax (signed), Don Mattingly, Duke Snider (signed), Stan Musial (signed), Willie Mays (signed), Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig, Yogi Berra, Bob Feller (signed), Roger Maris, Ernie Banks (signed), Harmon Killebrew (signed), Mickey Mantle (signed), Al Kaline (signed), Nolan Ryan (signed) and Whitey Ford (signed). Compartmentalized lucite display case preserves the magic.
