Boys of Summer, 1955 (Jackie Robinson, Duke Snider, Don Newcombe)

LIMITED EDITION FINE ART ARCHIVAL PRINT FROM THE SPORT COLLECTION

Number in Edition: 100

This is the quintessential, timeless shot of The Boys of Summer, made famous by Roger Kahn’s title of the same name. Shot exclusively for SPORT magazine by photographer George Heyer, this authentic image, hand printed from the original slide, captures the camaraderie of the Brooklyn Dodgers at the Ebbets Field batting cage early in the 1955 season. Included in this classic, hand printed image are Pee Wee Reese, Carl Furillo, Jackie Robinson, Carl Erskine, Gil Hodges, Don Newcombe, Duke Snider and Roy Campanella.

Each reproduction is printed on 100% Hahnemuhle cotton rag paper using UltraChrome K3 pigmented inks and produced to the highest standard of archival quality available.

Each piece is hand titled and numbered, carries The SPORT Collection emboss, and is accompanied by a signed Certificate of Authenticity which sets out the details of the edition as well as bearing a detailed description of the image.

14 x 17 inches unframed; 21 x 25 inches framed.

Every fine-art product from the SPORT Gallery is printed on premium 100% Hahnemuhle cotton rag paper or Premier Art Canvas, and printed with UltraChrome K3 pigmented inks for the highest available archival quality. All prints are hand-printed in Toronto and made to order.

Mounting, matting and framing are also to the highest archival standards. Every fine art frame is made in Toronto to order by a local framer. We use ArtCare mountboard and matboard. Tru Vue UV-coated conservation glass and Roma solid poplar frames, all of which meet or exceed museum standards for fade resistance and durability.

Unframed prints ship in a heavy-duty tube to ensure prints are not damaged during shipping. When you receive your print it will appear curled but will flatten out when framed. A tube is the safest way to ship a print. Unframed prints over $100 ship for free within Canada.
