Hello - I'm Jared Kelley, one of the official artists who worked on the MLB Topps Living Set, the largest single on-demand baseball set in trading card history. You are purchasing a
RARE portrait I created on an official Topps Living Set box, featuring a portrait of baseball slugger
SAMMY SOSA. I sketched this portrait directly onto the Topps box. It has been sealed with a UV resistant matte varnish to ensure it will last for many years to come.
>>>
CAUTION: Though the artwork on the box has been sealed against UV damage, the entire box itself was not coated. Please refrain from displaying this piece in direct sunlight or harsh lighting as the colors on the boxes non-art sides may fade. If displaying this piece, please strongly consider framing it behind museum quality glass, which protects against harmful UV rays.<<<
This box does not come with any Topps trading cards. It is shipped empty, wrapped in clear plastic, and packaged in a foam insulated mailer box for maximum protection. This piece of art comes with a small Certificate of Authenticity signed by me.
These art boxes are exceptionally rare, as I don't often have time to make them. Topps no longer produces these Living Set boxes so this is a true 1/1 collectible. Please research past sells of my Living Set box art on eBay to see for yourself the high market value they retain.
Long live the Living Set!
