And this Artwork evokes an unmistakably
Classic quality. Indeed, it will look
at home next to a diploma or a work of fine art. Whether you hang it on a wall or lean it on a shelf or mantle,
the Artwork will make a striking impression.
Please keep in mind, though, the visuals
depicted here on the website simply can not do justice to the detail and
quality of the actual Artwork.
Please note the uniform images shown are
produced from hand-painted watercolor paintings. The publisher chose this route, rather than photographs, because
in many cases original jerseys no longer exist, even at the various halls of
fame. In addition, a more consistent
look and feel for the uniforms is achieved by painting them, and allows for a
higher level of detail than a photograph in some cases.
Here, then, is a detailed description of the
12” x 21” Artpiece that sells for only $52 each. It consists of a 5” x 15” paper print that is housed in a black
frame with a textured black mat. The
black mat has a white groove cut into it, thus adding depth and beauty to the
piece. Weighing approximately four
pounds, the Artwork is protected by unbreakable Plexiglas and includes a
“hanger” on the back to allow for easy hanging. The black frame—and especially the textured black mat with
white groove—makes this a truly stunning Artpiece.
The above is an example of
the 12” x 21” Artpiece, which depicts the Washington Redskins.
**************************************
As for the 19” x 39” Limited Edition Artwork,
please note each Artwork is printed on 115-lb Garda Gloss stock and then
mounted to avoid any rippling effects.
As for its matting and framing, the Limited Edition is triple-matted in
an acid-free framing style. The outer
mat is a rich, black textured mat with white core. The middle and inner mat colors have been selected to complement
the team’s colors and the overall framed piece. The matting is framed to create a shadow box effect, giving the
entire framed piece a unique three-dimensional look. The frame is an exquisite solid wood frame finished with a rich
black matte texture, chosen to complement all three mats and the print
itself. Finally, the Artpiece is
protected by high-quality framing glass; the total weight of the Artpiece being
approximately 10 pounds.

Here then is the history of the Cardinals’ Uniforms …
#1A.
1903 The St. Louis Cardinals were originally
known as the St. Louis Brown Stockings. The Brown Stockings were a charter
member of the National League in 1876, and were originally owned by John B.C.
Lucas. That year they finished with a record of 45-19, second to Chicago’s
52-14 mark. Remarkably, and perhaps a sign that the game has changed in the
last 125 years, St. Louis’ pitcher George Bradley pitched all 64 games, thus
going 45 and 19 with a 1.23 ERA. The next season Bradley was signed by Chicago
and he went 18 and 23, while his ex mates went 28-32 with two pitchers sharing
the duties.
Partly because of
Bradley’s departure, there was talk of a scandal, and St. Louis owner John
Lucas withdrew his team from the league after the 1877 season. In 1881 the team
was taken on by Chris Von Der Ahe for no other reason than to promote his beer
business in 1881, but he joined the new American Association for the 1882
season. They became known as just the Browns and went on to win four straight
Pennants from 1885 to 1888. In 1891 the American Association folded and the
Browns re-entered the National League. In 1898 they were sold to Frank and
Stanley Robinson, owners of the National League Cleveland Spiders. The new
owners moved the best Spiders players to St. Louis and re-named the team the
St. Louis Perfectos. They wore red hats and red stockings, prompting a female
fan to remark “What a lovely shade of cardinal”. St. Louis sportswriter Willie
McHale overheard this and began using it in his articles. The name stuck and
thus the Cardinals were born.
The first jersey
we see is a home jersey with a very prominent collar. Note also that the jersey
has four buttons down the front, a jersey style known as a “pullover” style
jersey because it had to be pulled over the head. This style was common in
jerseys throughout baseball at this time. We believe the first major league
team to wear a completely buttoned front jersey (ie one that didn’t have to be
pulled over the head) was the 1909 Phillies, followed by the 1911 Cubs. The
pullover style jersey finally disappeared after the 1939 season (the A’s were
the last team to wear it), but of course pullovers resurfaced in a big way with
the double knit era of the 70’s and 80’s.
Note also that
even though this is a home jersey, it reads “St. Louis” and not the team
nickname. In this era it wasn’t unusual for teams to wear the same inscription
on their home & away jerseys, and the practice of wearing the city name on
the road and the team nickname at home didn’t really come into vogue until the
early 40’s (the 1914 Cubs appear to have been the first team to adopt the
fashion of team nickname at home, city name on the road).
#1B.
1920 By
1920 the lapel style collar has disappeared from the uniform. Note also that
the jersey now buttons completely and thus is no longer a “pullover” style
jersey. If you look closely, you’ll see that there is a center belt loop, which
secured the belt buckle off to one side. Players in the 1st part of
the 20th century usually wore the belt buckle to one side so they
could prevent injury when sliding into a base.
After several
sales of the team Sam Breadon becomes the majority stockholder of the Cardinals
and in 1919 makes 38 year old Branch Rickey the Vice President and General
Manager. These two men slowly and carefully developed the Cards into a
competitive team for many years to come.
Except for the
1914 Cards who went 81-72, and 1917 when they were 82-70, the period from 1900
to the early 1920’s was pretty woeful for the Cards. One bright light was the
emergence of Rogers Hornsby as a gifted
batter – in this 1920 season he hit .370, then .397 in 1921, .401 in 1922, .384
in 1923, a remarkable .424 in 1924, and .403 in 1925 – three .400+ seasons in a
4 year period! Only Ted Williams has hit .400 since then, and that was only
once - .406 in 1941. By the time Hornsby retired in 1937 after 23 seasons, his
lifetime average was .358 – good for 2nd place all time (behind Ty
Cobb’s .367 lifetime average) and two triple crown titles (1922 and 1925). But
even Rogers Hornsby couldn’t propel the Cards into the playoffs, and in 1920
they finished 75-79.
#2.
1926 This 1926 road uniform has several new
additions from the last jersey we saw. First off, pinstripes have been added.
As best we can tell, the first instance of pinstriped uniforms was in 1907,
when the Boston Braves’ road uniforms were made from a gray flannel with a fine
green pinstripe. Later that same year the Cubs had a new gray uniform with fine
pin striping made for the World Series - they wore it for the World Series
opener in Chicago and were later reprimanded by the league for not wearing a
white uniform at home. The Yankees, most often associated with pinstripe
uniforms, first wore a pinstriped uniform for one year at home in 1912 (the New
York Times wrote about their 1912 home opener “The Yankees presented a natty
appearance in their new uniforms of white with black pin stripes”), then every
year from 1915 to the present. The Cards first pinstripe was in 1918, when they
wore it both at home and on the road.
Note also the red piping that will become a trademark of
Cardinal uniforms in years to come – see how in 1926 it doesn’t extend down the
buttons but stops right at the team nickname. Note as well the fact that the
team nickname is written on the jersey as opposed to the city name. Finally,
and perhaps most importantly, note the two cardinals balanced on a single bat.
This concept was first introduced in 1922, and both the birds and the bat have
changed a number of times over the years. Over time we’ll see the bat go from
red to black to yellow, while the cardinals themselves will take on quite a
number of appearances.
But let’s talk
about the 1926 season – the first time the cardinals win the National League
pennant – they finish 89-65 under 1st year player-manager Rogers
Hornsby, edging the Reds by 2 games. Thus the Cards advanced to their first
World Series, facing Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig and the rest of the 91-63 New
York Yankees.
St. Louis is led
by 39 year old pitcher Grover Cleveland Alexander, who was traded to the Cards
from the Cubs in midseason. The mighty Yankees took a 1-0 and 3-2 series leads,
including a 10-5 win in game 4 that featured 3 home runs by Ruth. But the Cards
roared back to win game 6 in New York by a 10-2 score, then hung on in game 7
for a hard fought 3-2 victory in Yankee Stadium to capture their first ever
World’s Championship. Alexander pitched 20+ innings in the series, and went 2-0
with a 0.89 ERA.
#3.
1928 The 1927 Cards jersey was the first time we
saw only the cardinal logo with the abbreviation “St. L” on the jersey sleeve,
as well as the words “World Champions” circling the cardinal logo. By 1928 the
celebrating is over, but the lone cardinal on a bat logo remained for this 1928
home uniform. Note also the red piping only on the collar – a very subtle
touch.
After going 92-61
in 1927 and finishing 2 games behind the Pirates, the 1928 Cardinals go 95-59
and make it back to the World Series for the second time in three years. Once
again the Cards face the New York Yankees, who won a remarkable 110 games
against only 44 losses in 1927, then came right back and went 101-53 in 1928.
This time out,
there were no Grover Cleveland Alexander stories, as the 41 year old pitches 5
innings over two games and posts a 19+ ERA. But the whole Cardinals team was
overwhelmed, hitting a paltry .206. Ruth, on the other hand, goes 10 for 16 and
Gehrig 6 for 11 (4 of which were home runs). Enough said.
#4.
1931 As we see on this home white uniform, the
Cards have dropped the pinstripes, and have brought back the two
cardinals-on-a-black-bat logo, with “St. Louis” script as opposed to the team
nickname. This uniform was identical in design both at home and on the road.
The Cardinals’
wonderful run continues into the 30’s. In 1930, the Cards finish an impressive
92-62, then go on to face the powerhouse 102-52 Philadelphia A’s, a team which
some have called “the greatest team you’ve never heard of” (they won the World
Series in 1929 and again in 1930). The Cards fall to the A’s 4 games to 2, but
1931 will tell a different tale.
The 1931 Cards
finish with their best record ever – 101-53, 13 games ahead of their nearest
rival (the Giants). Meanwhile, the mighty A’s amass a 107-45 record, setting up
a repeat match up.
In a see saw
series, the Cards take 2-1 and 3-2 series leads, but the A’s tie it up in game
6 with a 8-1 shellacking of the Cards. Thus a dramatic 7th and
deciding game was in order, and the Cards prevailed with a nail biting 4-2 win
as the A’s came back for 2 in the top of the ninth. The Series heroes for the
Cards were rookie Pepper Martin, who batted .500, stole 5 bases, and legged out
4 doubles, while starting pitchers Bill Hallahan and Burleigh Grimes each
collected 2 wins apiece and Hallahan added the save in the 7th game.
This was the
Cards’ 4th World Series appearance in 6 years (1926, 1928, 1930 and
1931) and second win (1926 and 1931), and they weren’t done yet!
#5.
1934 The infamous “Gas House Gang”, a moniker which described the 1934-35
Cardinals' fiery attitude toward the game and their fun-loving style of play at
the time, was made up of a
bunch of colorful characters, including brothers Dizzy and Paul Dean, Pepper
Martin, Joe Medwick, Frankie Frisch, and Leo Durocher. They were a group of guys
that loved baseball more than anything and loved having just as much fun off
the field.
At the start of
the season Dizzy predicted that he and his brother, (a rookie) would win 45
games between them. Dizzy won 30 himself, and his brother 19, for an impressive
total of 49 wins for the two brothers. Their 49 wins accounted for more than
half the Cardinals regular season wins, and the Cards go 95-58 for a 2 game
victory over the Giants. Their opponents this time out – the 101-53 Detroit
Tigers led by Hank Greenberg, Charlie Gehringer, Goose Goslin and Mickey
Cochrane (in fact, 7 Tigers regulars hit over .300).
In another close
World Series, the Cards fall behind 3 games to 2 heading back to Detroit, and
things look grim. But they scratch out a 4-3 win in game 6, capped by Paul
Deans game winning 7th inning RBI. And Dizzy is back on the mound
for game 7 and he tosses a complete game 6 hitter as the Cards wallop the
Tigers 11-0. When all is said and done, the Dean brothers account for all 4
Cardinals victories and Martin and Medwick are the hitting heroes.
As a side note to
the 7th game, in the 6th inning, St. Louis’ Joe Medwick
slides hard into Tigers third baseman Marv Owen, sending the hometown crowd
into a frenzy. When Medwick took left field in the bottom of the inning, the
crowd started hurling fruit, bottles and everything else they could at him and
was taken out of the game for his own protection.
The home uniform
worn by the “Gang” that we see here has changed very little from the last one
we saw, with the exception of “Cardinals” replacing the city name on both their
home and away uniforms. Note also the way the red piping stops at the team
name, a Cardinal “trait” since the early 20’s.
This was the
Cards’ 5th World Series appearance in 9 years (1926, 1928, 1930,
1931 and 1934) and third win (1926, 1931 and 1934), and they’ll catch their
breath for a couple years before cranking it up again in the 40’s.
#6.
1942 During the 40’s, 50’s and 60’s many teams
used zippered jerseys instead of the more traditional button front jerseys,
while a handful of teams wore them well into the 70’s and even the 80’s. The
Reds, Yankees and A’s were the only 3 pre-1977 teams that never wore zippers.
The 1937 Cubs were the first team to wear a zippered jersey, and as far we can
tell the 1988 Phillies were the last to wear one.
The first year the
Cardinals wore a zippered jersey was 1939. Notice how the red trim on this road
uniform has changed to become a much more prominent design element on this 1942
home jersey, even around the “belt tunnel.” For those of you that haven’t heard
of this expression before, a belt tunnel is really just a 6”-8” wide belt loop.
December 1941 to
November 1945, America goes to war, and the question is raised, should
able-bodied athletes of baseball be fighting for their country rather than
playing baseball? Baseball Commissioner Landis asked President Franklin D.
Roosevelt what to do - here is part of Roosevelt’s reply:
“I honestly feel
it would be best for the country to keep baseball going. There will be fewer
people unemployed and everybody will work longer hours and harder than ever
before… Here is another way of looking at it - if 300 teams use 5,000 or 6,000
players, these players are a definite recreational asset to at least 20,000,000
of their fellow citizens - and that in my judgment is thoroughly worthwhile.”
Wartime sleeve
patches were worn by all levels of professional baseball teams between 1942 and
1945. A “Health” patch (seen here) was worn during the 1942 season, part of a
war-time health and fitness awareness campaign, and from 1943-1945 a “Stars and
Stripes” was worn.
Towards the end of
the season the Cards trailed the Brooklyn Dodgers by 10½ games, then went on to
win 43 of their last 51 games to finish with a 106-48 record and pass the
Dodgers for the NL Pennant (the Dodgers finished 2 games back at 104-50). The
1942 Cardinals team is considered to be one of the best ever, featuring among
others Enos Slaughter, rookie and NL MVP Stan Musial, and pitcher Mort Cooper,
who went 22 and 7 with a 1.77 ERA.
The Cards faced
the 103-51 Yankees, led by Dimaggio, Gordon, Rizutto and Dickey. After losing
the first game in the World Series, the Cards storm back to win four in a row,
to collect their fourth World Series Championship (1926, 1931, 1934 and 1942).
It should be noted
that the 1942-44 Cardinals have to be considered one of the best baseball teams
in history - they are one of only 4 teams in baseball history to win 100 games
three years in a row. In 1942 they went 106-48; in 1943 they went 105-49 (they
went on to lose 4 games to 1 to the Yanks); and in 1944 they also went 105-49
(they beat their stadium sharing AL counterparts the Browns 4 games to 2 in the
only “Stadium Series” ever played). The three other teams to win 100 games
three years running were the 1929-31 Philadelphia A’s, the 1969-71 Orioles and
the 1997-99 Braves.
Thus in the 21
years from 1926 to 1946, the Cards made it to the Series 9 times (1926, 1928,
1930, 1931, 1934, 1942-1944, 1946) and won it all 6 times (1926, 1931, 1934,
1942, 1944, 1946). Much of the credit has to go to Branch Rickey, the crafty
general manager of the Cards during this period of time – he is credited with
having one of the most extensive minor league systems ever assembled – it’s
been said that at their peak the Cards had more than 30 farm teams, a far cry
from today’s 3 or 4 farm teams per major league club.
#7.
1955 This home uniform starts to set the pattern
of Cardinals uniforms to come for the next 40-50 years – look how similar this
jersey is to the 1998 version. The bat has now become yellow (it changed in
1951 after being black and red over the last 30 years). The red piping has been
slimmed down from the 1942 jersey, and follows the classic line around the
collar and down the front of the jersey. Note also the red belt, which we
haven’t seen in this poster since the 1903 uniform. Finally, note that the
zippered front is still in effect, although this would be the last year for the
zipper on a Cardinals uniform.
In 1953 the
Cardinals were sold to Gussie Busch of the Anheuser-Busch Company, and at the
end of the season the Cards home, Sportsman Park, would be renovated and
renamed Busch Stadium. Mr. Busch had wanted to rename the Stadium “Budweiser
Stadium”, but the league thought that was too commercial and turned down the
request – funny how times change, now it seems every Stadium has to have a
commercial sponsor.
The 1955 Cards are
still led by the immortal Stan Musial, but he can’t do it all himself as the
Cards struggle to a 68-86 record.
#8.
1957 The
two cardinals sitting on the bat have disappeared, and just the Cardinals name
in script appears on the front of this road jersey. Also new is an underline
“flourish” or “swoosh” under the team’s name. This flourish, as well as the cardinal
logo on the left sleeve, first appeared in 1956 and was never seen again after
1957.
Over the years
many teams have worn a “swoosh” under their team name. This style was
introduced to baseball by the 1932 Cubs, and has been worn by many teams since
then. As mentioned above, the Cardinals would “swoosh” it for two seasons –
1956 and 1957.
It was also
unusual for the Cardinals to have a blue undershirt and a black belt, which
once again only lasted the two seasons. Both home and away uniforms feature the
team nickname as opposed to the city name.
At the time, Stan
Musial was playing in his 16th season, and had established a
National League record for most consecutive games played at 895 until he was
forced to sit out a game mid way through the 1957 season due to injury. He
still won the NL batting title with a .351 average in 134 games, gathering 176
hits, 102 RBI and 29 home runs. Remarkably, Musial would go on to play 6 more
seasons and end his career in 1963 with top 10 all time records in 8 offensive
categories (5th in games; 9th in slugging; 5th
in at-bats; 4th in hits; 3rd in doubles; 6th
in runs; 5th in RBI; 9th in walks).
#9.
1964 As
we see on this home uniform, numbers have started appearing on the front of the
jersey, something that began for the Cards in 1962. This 1964 jersey is very
similar to the Cardinals current jersey. Simplicity is key: there is no piping,
no zipper and lots of white space. The bat color, belt color, and placement of
the birds remain almost identical to today’s jersey.
Uniform numbers
first made their appearance on the front of a uniform in 1952 - the Brooklyn
Dodgers were the first team to wear uniform numbers on the front of their
jersey. The Braves followed suit in 1953, and the Reds joined in 1956. The 1916
Cleveland Indians actually wore a uniform number on their sleeve, but it wasn’t
until the ’52 Dodgers that the number made it to the front of the jersey. The
Cards, as mentioned above, joined the parade in 1962.
A few months into
the 1962 season the Cards make a trade with the Cubs. One of the players
involved is outfielder Lou Brock. In the 103 games he played in St. Louis in
1962, he would score 81 runs. The team jumps from 7th place at the
time of the trade to first by the end of the season (with a 93-69 record, good
for a slim 1 game margin over both the Reds and the Phillies, and 3 games up on
the Giants – what a finish!). With another Pennant, the Cards would face Yogi
Berra’s powerful New York Yankees in the World Series.
After losing game
2, Cardinals pitcher Bob Gibson came back to pitch complete games in both game
5 and game 7 on just 2 days rest – that after having pitched all 10 innings in
game 5. He didn’t have to pitch the 11th inning thanks to Tim
McCarver, who belted a three run homer in the top of the 10th.
McCarver had an awesome Series, going 11 for 23 for a .478 average.
In the 7th
and deciding game superman Bob Gibson struck out 9 Yankees, giving him a total
of 31 K’s for the Series. The Cards won the game 7 to 5, and took the Series 4
games to 3. Gibson was named the World Series MVP.
#10A.
1974 This home uniform is of a double-knit style
that most major league teams succumbed to during the 70’s and early 80’s. It
was a pullover style, made of stretchy, synthetic material. The pants were called
“Sans-a-Belt”’s because the elasticized waistline eliminated the need for a
belt. The 1970 Pirates were the first double-knit - sans-a-belt team, and the
Cards and Astros joined them in 1971. By 1975 two thirds of major league teams,
including the Cards, had succumbed.
The Cards had
several notable accomplishments in 1974. Lou Brock broke the single season
stolen base record by stealing a total of 118 bases, breaking Maury Wills’
record of 104 set in 1962. With these 118 thefts he leaps from ninth to second
on the all time stolen base list. Bob Gibson strikes out his 3000th
hitter, and is only the second player to do so at this time, (he currently
ranks 12th in career strikeouts with 3117 K’s). And on September 11th
the Cards and Mets play the longest night game on record, 25 innings.
In the standings,
the Cards finish 2 games out of first in a very tight NL East. Their record of
86-75 is 2 behind the Pirates.
#10B.
1982 This road uniform is still the double knit
“sans-a-belt” style, however it is highly unusual because of the colors. The
Cardinals abandon the clean white uniform and go for baby blue. This seems like
an odd choice for a team that has traditionally been wrapped in cardinal red
and white.
On the basis of a
92-70 regular season, the workmanlike Cards - led by Ozzie Smith, Lonnie Smith,
Keith Hernandez and Willie McGee - enter their first National League
Championship Series since it was established in 1969. They sweep aside the
Atlanta Braves in three straight games to capture their first Pennant since
1964, and face the Milwaukee Brewers in the World Series.
After being down
three games to two in the Series and facing elimination, the Cards returned
home to Busch Stadium for games 6 and 7. In game 6, the Red Birds embarrass the
Brew Crew 13 to 1, including a 6 run 6th inning. Then in the 7th
and deciding game, the Cards overcome a 3-1 deficit in the bottom of the 6th
to take the lead 4-3, then add 2 insurance runs in the 8th to seal a
6-3 victory. Dane Iorg goes 9 for 17 and Jose Andujar wins 2 and posts a 1.35
ERA, but Darrell Porter’s steady play and timely hitting earns him the Series
MVP.
A side note: 1982 would mark shortstop Ozzie Smith’s third consecutive Gold
Glove, on his way to winning 13 in a row.
#11.
1998 The bat color, belt color, and placement of
the bird’s remains almost identical to the 1955 jersey. As you can see on this
home uniform there isn’t much difference between the uniform of today and how
it looked over 40 years ago. Some things do stand the test of time, and the Cards’
clean, classic look is something to admire.
Ever since the 1994 cancellation of the World Series due to a player lockout,
baseball fans had been looking for something to cheer about. It came in 1998 in
St. Louis and Chicago.
Cardinal slugger
Mark McGwire went head to head with the Cubs Sammy Sosa for the single season
home run record of 61 set by the Yankees Roger Maris in 1961. In a home run
derby that gripped the entire nation, the two sluggers went toe to toe on the
evening sports casts and in the headlines of the nation’s daily newspapers.
Every morning even casual fans had to know – how’d they do last night?
On September 7th
McGwire reached the magical plateau of 61, and kept going. The next night he
created a new record with his 62nd homer, but the question was, how
many more could he hit? Sosa broke the 61 mark as well, and then caught and
passed McGwire on September 25th as he hit his 66th
dinger. Sosa’s lead would last for 45 minutes as McGwire tied the mark, then
hit two the next day to take over the lead. Meanwhile, Sosa paused on 66.
On the last day of
the season for the Cards, “Big Mac” hit another two outta the park, setting the
new single season home run record with 70 dingers. The fans had come back, and
what they witnessed was pure magic. Thanks Sammy, and thanks Mac!
