Hand-Painted · One of One
Icons of the game,
painted by hand.
Every canvas starts with a single frame — the swing, the stance, the knockout — and becomes an original painting built to outlast the highlight reel.
The Collection

Join the WaitlistEdition 1
Signed, numbered, and gone once they're gone.
Each print is a museum-quality 16×20 reproduction, hand-signed and numbered — many to the exact number of the player's own jersey. Artist proofs are always 1 of 1. Once Edition 1 sells out, it's retired for good; Edition 2 begins at a 30% premium, with no artist proofs.

Built For Where You Live
From the studio to the man cave to the great room.
Every piece is finished and framed to hold its own on a serious wall — whether that's a collector's den or a museum-quiet living room. Nothing about it reads like a print off the internet.
Mantle, Gretzky, Ohtani, and Jordan, framed and installed together in a client's home.
Eric Samuel Timm, with “Mickey Mantle”
The Process
Painted from the moment, not the merchandise.
Eric Samuel Timm has spent more than 20 years bringing art and storytelling to life in front of over a million people across 39 countries. His love of collecting sports cards as a kid has come full circle into original artwork capturing the players, moments, and memories that made the game.
Each portrait begins the same way — pulling a single frame from the exact moment an athlete became a legend, then rebuilding it by hand in acrylic and ink. No filters, no print runs pretending to be originals.
“I see art as three fold: a mirror that reflects your memories and moments, a window that shows you possibility, and a door that invites my viewers toward greatness despite the failures and flaws these icons all had.”
— Eric Samuel Timm
Up close: acrylic, ink, and raw canvas grain — every mark is by hand.
