Original Art signed: "Derek Jeter", framed to 26x23, 16x13¼ opening. Also signed: "Derek
McKimson" (the artist). Limited edition (#32/40), hand inked and painted celluloid sheet
against a colorful lithographic background. Image shows Jeter in batting stance in Yankees
uniform, accompanied by six Warner Bros. cartoon characters. Derek Jeter, the American
League Rookie of the Year in 1996, has played his entire Major League career in Yankee
pinstripes, leading the team to 5 World Championships and serving as captain since 2003. He
was the MVP of the All-Star Game and of the World Series in the same year (2000). Eleven
times an All-Star through 2010, Jeter has more hits than any other Yankee in history
(having passed Lou Gehrig) in 2009, and more hits than any other shortstop in history.
When his defensive range was faulted by statisticians early in the new century, Jeter began a
special off-season exercise program to remedy - successfully - this single weakness in his game.
When baseball fans name the greatest shortstops of all time, Honus Wagner - who retired nearly
a century ago - is the consensus choice for #1. Derek Jeter is on a very short list for
consideration as #2. Minor indentations at sides of frame. Otherwise, fine condition.
