Fine art baseball mitt by SABR member Sean Kane makes the team in Cooperstown

From Sean Kane at Sean Kane Baseball Art on April 30, 2019:

My artwork featuring Hall of Fame pitcher “Dizzy” Dean on a hand-painted, vintage baseball glove is now part of the collection at The National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum.

The painting was voted into the Baseball Hall of Fame collection by their Acquisitions Committee in early 2019. It was presented to Hall of Fame president Jeff Idelson in March.

The artwork is a painted 1930’s era Spalding baseball glove highlighting the eccentric, colorful Hall of Fame pitcher and ace of the St. Louis Cardinals staff from 1930-37. The “Gashouse Gang” won the 1934 World Series during Dizzy’s MVP year.
