As many may recall, Dan Duffy was our guest of honor two years ago at the last National held in Chicago, where a crowd gathered to watch him put the finishing touches on a Wrigley Field creation that then sold for $3,000. Now, the famous "Word Artist" is back with this stirring championship tribute—which was recently featured on the nightly news by Chicago's local NBC affiliate. Kris Bryant, Anthony Rizzo, Javier Baez and Addison Russell are composed exclusively of the numbers and letters from the entire season's game details (date, opponent, score, win/loss), concluding with "CHICAGO CUBS WIN 2016 WORLD SERIES 4-3." Incredibly, not a single pen stroke serves any other purpose than forming every last line, shape, shadow and contour with text! A meticulous master of his craft, Duffy has signed the 16 x 20 inch piece in blue ink on Rizzo's left cleat. Handsomely matted and framed for display.
