Musing about my five collecting interests: All things Orioles and BALTIMORE Colts, 50's Baseball, team publications, Japanese cards and even some football and hockey. You might find some beautiful women, soccer stuff, presidential pins and life advice from time to time. I don't charge extra for any of those.

1973/74 Linnett Portaits, Paul Blair & Brooks Robinson
Sports art. I've discussed it before. Charles Linnett did these portraits and they were sold in packs of three. He produced them for just about every professional team at the time. I've had these two for so long I can't remember how I got them.
Linnett's daughters are in the design business these days. Their dad died in 2006. They commented on a Bobby Orr portrait which was shown on another blog a few years back. Here is a checklist of the baseball portraits.
Here is a pic I found of the original packaging:
