The title of this impressive piece, "Legends of Basketball We Made This Game," completely sums up its subject matter. This frame collage collects over sixty NBA greats, men who redefined, reinvigorated and reinvented the game of basketball over the past six decades. This particular piece was created by Dreamstar (NBA Licensee) and the NBA Retired Players Association in conjunction with the NBA and to be given out by the NBA to be used how they wished. David Stern was personally behind the creation of this piece with Dreamstar and to see it be made as a high quality autograph piece to be made for the NBA. Doesn't get more authentic than directly from the NBA and is a licensed product of the league.  

This item though is unlike any other item done by the NBA and Dreamstar before. This piece is an unreleased prototype the NBA and Dreamsar were experimenting with as a future release item, and it never actually was released and never made other than 2 of them. These 2 were created to try to give a physical visual for potential buyers and see what their interest level was and the brass behind the piece, to be able to see a potential new version of the Legends of Basketball line. The pieces never ended up ever being shown off and sat around for years until Inscriptagraphs got their hands on the 2.

The only piece you will ever see of this same collage and that every other one is that of an abstract art canvas. Dreamstar and the NBA wanted to create a more modern item for collectors but using the same concept as their artwork as the artwork display didn't appeal to as many collectors as they would have hoped so to tried to appeal to the potential buyers that declined the artwork that they made and the Silver version was conceived and that is what we have here. There was a brochure pamphlet even created to almost begin selling the piece, in which you will see that brochure in the listings of this photo that has a basketball court background and is included in your purchase. The problem was, they never ended up selling any of them for whatever reason and the 2 prototypes were left all to themselves, never to have any others ever made again. This is a true almost 1/1 type item as NO ONE has these or has ever even seen them before, so you have a chance to own an extremely rare and collectible Basketball memorabilia item! Don't mess with one of the many art canvases of this piece, mess with the one that is unique and unlike any others out there!

This visually impactful piece features color action shots of 51 of some of the greatest NBA players of all time in which each photograph has been professionally mounted, each signed by the player depicted and also includes the signature of former NBA Commissioner, the late David Stern underneath the NBA logo at the the top center of the collage. Over the years these pieces have been going up and up as there are players on this piece who have since passed away after signing the piece and some players have become more and more difficult to obtain their signatures.

The six decades of hardwood stars include Yao Ming, Elgin Baylor, Connie Hawkins, Jerry West, James Worthy, Magic Johnson, Larry Bird, Kevin McHale, Robert Parish, Paul Pierce, Kevin Garnett, Gary Payton, Elvin Hayes, Bob Lanier, Clyde Drexler, Bob Pettit, Artis Gilmore, Shaquille O’Neal, Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant, John Havlicek, Oscar Robertson, Carmelo Anthony, Bill Walton, Billy Cunningham, Hal Greer, Allen Iverson, Charles Barkley, Moses Malone, Julius Erving, LeBron James, Willis Reed, Jerry Lucas, Dwyane Wade, Bill Bradley, Walt Frazier, Lenny Wilkens, Nate Thurmond, Bob Cousy, Chris Paul, Steve Nash, Jason Kidd, Bob McAdoo, George Gervin, David Robinson, John Stockton, Rick Barry, Vince Carter, Adrian Dantley, Dwight Howard & Dirk Nowitzki!

The incredible collage features a silver frame around its edges and measures approximately 63” x 43” x 1 1/8" inches in size. The piece is also inscribed in the lower right corner “NBRPA 2” in black, showing it's the #2 Prototype in what was supposed to be an edition size total of 75. This piece comes with a notarized Letter of Authenticity from Dreamstar (NBA licensee) guaranteeing the authenticity of the piece itself as well as the signatures on the piece throughout.

In addition, this entire item is certified AUTHENTIC by one of the very best and most reputable authentication companies in the autograph industry today, James Spence Authentication (JSA). It comes with the JSA Letter of Authenticity and can be verified on the JSA authentication database on their website 24/7/365.

Lastly, located right next to their individual autographs, Upper Deck Authentication (UDA) authentication holograms are included with the autographs of Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant & LeBron James. At the time of each guy signing their signatures for this collage, all 3 players were under exclusive autograph contracts with Upper Deck, and it is the best authentication you can get for their signatures, If you are looking for an unbelievable piece to add to the man cave, office, game room or lady lair, then this is the piece for you!
