A must for any baseball stadium enthusiast! Featuring artwork by Jeff Suntala that was years in the making, it includes meticulous color sketches of 26 milestone ballparks and their significance, from around North America. Starting with Hoboken, New Jersey's Elysian Fields (1846), noted as the "first regular meeting place of baseballists", it continues on through: Union Grounds, New York (1862); Lakefront Park, Chicago (1883); Baker Bowl, Philadelphia (1895); Shibe Park, Philadelphia (1909); Sportsman's Park, St. Louis (1909); Polo Grounds, New York (1911); Tiger Stadium, Detroit (1912); Fenway Park, Boston (1912); Crosley Field, Cincinnati (1912); Ebbets Field, Brooklyn (1913); Wrigley Field, Chicago (1914); Yankee Stadium, New York (1923); Municipal Stadium, Cleveland (1932); RFK Stadium, Washington (1961); Dodger Stadium, Los Angeles (1962); Shea Stadium, New York (1964); The Astrodome, Houston (1965); Jack Murphy Stadium, San Diego (1969); Kauffman Stadium, Kansas City (1973); Olympic Stadium, Montreal (1977); Skydome, Toronto (1989); Camden Yards, Baltimore (1992); Jacobs Field, Cleveland (1994); SBC Park, San Francisco (2000); PNC Park, Pittsburgh (2002).
From the richly detailed stadium drawings, to the classic, understated background design, to the sharp white background and the simple "Evolution" title, this poster is an absolute beauty for the wall of home or office. Worthy of a nice frame, it is a conversation piece that will give you, and anyone else who views it, hours of enjoyment from the great memories it will stir and the great knowledge it will impart. A true classic!
