Hand-made collectible hockey card

On February 23, 2019, at the NHL Stadium Series game against Pittsburgh, Flyers mascot Gritty went streaking across the ice in front of 69,620 fans. After security chased him down, Gritty was ejected. Upper Deck commemorated the chase with their Game Dated Moments card.

Since Gritty bared all, I wanted to incorporate elements of his orange costume, and sourced the correct fabric. I've also used holographic materials in this 1/1, as a nod to Upper Deck's premium card history.

Gritty's character design is influenced by some of the ambiguous Muppet and Sesame Street characters from the 70's and 80's. The Cooper Black font is a tribute to that era. The text, "We're Going Streaking," references the iconic Will Ferrell scene from the movie Old School.


About my hologram collector cards

Upper Deck launched in 1989 as the first premium baseball card brand, using white glossy stock, fancy graphics... and holographic materials! So, I'm using my own holographic materials to re-design these vintage cards. The focus on these designs is repetitive pattern making, which conveys the massive overproduction of cards Upper Deck printed during the height of the boom.

Here's what you'll receive with this order

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