BID PER WHAT YOU SEE IN THE PHOTO, NOT THE AI GENERATED TITLES AND DESCRIPTIONS! Brooks Robinson Autographed Norman Rockwell "Gee Thanks, Brooks" Reproduction Print, JSA Authenticated
This lot features a hand-signed reproduction print of the celebrated Norman Rockwell painting titled "Gee Thanks, Brooks, " featuring Baltimore Orioles legend and Hall of Famer Brooks Robinson. The artwork captures a classic Americana scene of Robinson signing autographs for fans; notably, Rockwell included a self-portrait of himself as the man smoking a cigar in the upper-left corner. This specific piece carries significant historical provenance, having been commissioned in 1971 by Figgie International (the parent company of Rawlings and Adirondack) to commemorate Robinson’s 1970 World Series MVP honors. The print is hand-signed by Brooks Robinson in vibrant blue ink with a comprehensive inscription reading: "My Best Always, Brooks Robinson, Hall of Fame 1983." The piece is double-authenticated, featuring a JSA (James Spence Authentication) Basic Certification sticker (Cert #CK13262) with a matching COA card, as well as a "Brooks C. Robinson Norman Rockwell Reproduction Certificate of Authenticity" that is also hand-signed by Robinson. The print comes professionally matted and is ready for framing.
Condition report:
