TENNIS GREAT & HALL OF FAMERLIMITED EDITION LITHOGRAPH
12" x 17.5" Unmated , Unframed & Unsigned James Scott Connors (born September 2, 1952)[2] is a retired American world No. 1 tennis player, often considered among the greatest in the history of the sport.[3] He held the top Association of Tennis Professionals (ATP) ranking for a then-record 160 consecutive weeks from 1974 to 1977 and a career total of 268 weeks.
By virtue of his long and proli...fic career, Connors still holds three prominent Open Era men's singles records: 109 titles, 1, 556 matches played, and 1, 274 match wins. His titles include eight majors (joint Open Era five US Open titles, two Wimbledon titles, one Australian Open title), three year-end championships, and 17 Grand Prix Super Series titles. In 1974, he became the second man in the Open Era to win three majors in a calendar year, and was not permitted to participate in the fourth, the French Open. In 1982, he won both Wimbledon and the US Open and is considered to be the World-number-one Player for that year, in addition to 1974 and 1976. He retired in 1996 at the age of 43.
About Us We have been in the autograph and memorabilia business for over 35 years. All of our autographs were acquired in person. To guarantee that our items were authentically obtained, we have done work for or attended over three hundred charity-celebrity golf outings in the last ten years We have booked numerous sports stars to signings. Our inventory numbers several thousands of items. We have earned a great reputation through the high quality products that we offer for sale.
In 1993 we were approached by Heisman trophy winner, Vic Janowicz to produce an art print for him to be used for charity functions. It was because of Vic's first print that we began to commission artists to create high quality action prints of other famous athletes. The majority of the pieces that were produced by our company are signed and numbered by the artist and then authentically autographed by the athlete or athletes. All of our items come with a certificate of authenticity providing you with a guarantee without time limit.
Unlike most "limited edition prints" where the number of prints made is usually between 500 to 2000, most of our prints were produced in smaller quantities. Our average print run on each lithograph is normally under 150 with some of our runs are as low as 60. Our small production runs have caused the value of some of our prints to soar in value to over ten times their original retail sale price. Some of our "sold out" prints, which originally retailed for forty dollars, have been sold for as high as six hundred dollars.
We produce a small production run of each limited edition print, so that your purchase becomes a collectors item, as well as an attractive addition to your home or office.
Even though we offer memorabilia for all sports, this site mainly displays Ohio State and Cleveland Browns memorabilia. As a company, we have produced more approved art prints for Ohio State than all the other artists combined in the history of the school. If you would like information on memorabilia that we have for other teams or sports, please email us. We welcome any more questions that you might have about our items or our company.
PLEASE NOTE: WE ONLY OFFER COA's FOR OUR PERSONALLY PRODUCED ART PRINTS. AS MOST OF YOU KNOWLEDGEABLE COLLECTORS ALREADY KNOW, WE HAVE NOT PRODUCED THIS PRINT. WE DON'T KNOW WHO DID. IF YOU HAVE ANY IDEA OF WHO THE ARTIST WAS, WHO PRODUCED IT OR THE NUMBER OF PRINTS MADE, PLEASE MESSAGE ME. THANK YOU
