Hand-painted collectible baseball card

Every Met fan remembers Mookie Wilson's epic at-bat like it was yesterday. With Vin Scully on the call... trailing 5-4 in the bottom of the 10th, Mookie grinds away. On a 2-2 count, a wild pitch scores Kevin Mitchell to tie the game. Then, moments later... on the 10th pitch... Wilson's ground ball finds its way through Bill Buckner’s legs... scoring Ray Knight all the way from 2nd with the winning run.

The thrilling comeback set the stage for Game 7, and the Mets would go on to win their second World Series... while the Red Sox storied drought continued.

This card is a two-sided piece of artwork. The front is a mosaic of tiled '86 Topps New York Mets, with Mookie at the center. The back is Manager Davey Johnson's card #501 (listing the team roster), with the trophy painted as gum.


About my collector cards

After purchasing some old wax packs to study the size and texture of gum sticks, I developed my own paint techniques in order to replicate it. Now, I hand-paint bubble gum directly onto vintage baseball cards to create small collectibles.

Here's what you'll receive with this order

  • My original hand-painted gum onto a baseball card.
  • Each collector card is paint-marked with it's edition number.
  • These art cards are protected inside an Ultra Pro One Touch magnetic card holder... customized with my matching Rosen signature label.
  • I do not sign these cards by request. However, your package will include bonus items personally autographed by me.

Expected delivery time for pre-orders

Are you purchasing a pre-order? My pre-order listings are for card art that has not been painted yet. In most cases, I already have the card in stock to paint on, and will create your artwork within a few days of your purchase. Thanks for your patience.
