Unlike baseball cards, football cards sets were limited in terms of the number of players in each year's set. Therefore, to maximize the number of players in this collage, it was necessary to include card images from several years.

Highlighting the collage is a real football card of Tony Franklin that he has personally signed This is a great collectible for any football fan.

I make all these collages by hand. As a history buff as well as a lover of old movies and all types of sports, the key to each picture is the research behind it. Deciding what movies should go with a particular star or what game or series would best reflect a certain sports hero is crucial to a successful collage. I then design each picture individually and lay out the design on the mat. Finally, I cut each mat based on that design and assemble the collage.
