Moonlight Graham
- Moonlight Graham is the epitome of Cup of Coffee Players. His brief baseball career consisted of two innings only in the field, he never got the opportunity to bat.
- However those 2 innings were celebrated in fiction and on screen though the WP Kinsella novel "Shoeless Joe" and the film adaptation "Field of Dreams"
- The canvas for this Cup is the 1908-09 Rose Company Postcards (PC760). A set that Archie "Moonlight" Graham appeared in as a minor leaguer
- The Caduceus symbol is present to represent Graham's career as a Physician.
- Moon appears top right for Moonlight
- A. Graham for Archibald
- Figure in the bottom left is to show that Graham only played in the field.

Fantastic. Love the idea of these art cups almost as much as I love your art.
ReplyDeleteThanks! I have a bunch of ideas and a bunch of cups. Just need to find the time to get them out there. In the meantime I will dry and document the cups and other original art that I have been working on.
