Tim,

You've been a great artist from the start, but, I sware, you're perfecting your craft and getting better and better every time.

Very nice! How much did you charge for that particular piece? I may want one, exactly like it.

Thanks so much everyone for the compliments and for viewing my work. Unfortunately, it is part of the unofficial contract I sign with the buyer that I will never re-create the same card/image. I can do a '63 Rose, a '65 Rose, etc........but I will never make the '64 again. If I can ever quote you a price on anything different, feel free to drop me an email: [email protected]. Thanks again for taking the time!

Do you glaze the top to prevent future peeling?

Good question. Yes, it is "sprayed" with a matte finish sealant. This not only prevents the pieces from coming unglued in the future, but it also knocks out the reflection/glare from lights, etc. After they are sprayed, the only natural thing that can make a disaster (other than fire, obviously) is water damage.

Thoughts on number of hours and number of cards it would take to do this one?

what you do is amazing. another remarkable piece there.

...agree BIG TIME!!! Loved all your works and reading about how you put them together.

Don't even want to know what it would cost for a '54 Bowman Ted Williams ......... ;) ;) (actually I really do not want to know as I just bought a new car today but that would be a great project too)

Crap! As you can see by my avatar, the '64 Topps is my all time favorite Rose card. If I think of another that I would like I will certainly let you knoe. You do amazing work.

Good job. Wow. 40 hours. Looks fun and rewarding. Maybe get a FF once the boys move out and the wife allows. :lol: Very cool.

LOL! A Ripken FF would be insane! :D By the way, if you check out the elbow shot on the Cal Ripken "Iron Man" piece, you will see Billy's face staring back at you. I also made sure to put Cal, Sr. on there several times. ;)
