In a few posts recently, I have been sharing some of the great sports themed original artwork by the great Adam Lister. I purchased three original ink and watercolor paintings that are baseball card sized recently… This one is a print, an iconic image of Lakers great, Kobe Bryant! Being a print, they are still limited and numbered however, there are significantly less expensive than original paintings. This gives an opportunity for a collectors to buy really cool artwork, especially framed nicely, and at a reasonable price.

One of my favorite PC players, the story of Victor Oladipo is well known. As he was coming into his own as an NBA All-Star, he suffered a career crushing injury. He’s attempting to make a comeback next year… I’m not sure it will be successful, but I will continue buying super cool, rare cards of his like this select Rookie gold prizm that has been graded gem mint by BGS.

Original hand-painted ink and watercolor 1/1 painting by the great Adam Lister. He does amazing sports/pop-culture related deconstructed original art and also has less expensive prints. He made one each of iconic cards. I bought the 52 Mantle, this 86 Jordan and the 89 Griffey Upper Deck. Truly iconic pieces that are some of the most recognizable in the hobby. Combining my love of sports, cards, and art. Check him out on Instagram!

I don’t collect a lot of hockey cards, but I’ve always wanted a Wayne Gretzky rookie auto. I have a rather nice BGS 5.5 (not signed) but recently upgraded to this one about two years ago. I would likely sell my BGS as I much prefer to have an autographed, on card, rookie with a clean, bold, clear signature like this. Also, I know there’s some corner wear, but this is one of the nicest PSA 2’s I’ve ever seen.
