  • The Timeless Collaboration of Artwork and Sports Cards

    The Timeless Collaboration of Artwork and Sports Cards

    op Ink& PAPER The timeless collaboration of artwork and sports cards BY DAVID LEE ports cards, like paintings, have no intrinsic value. Both are simply ink on paper. But as novelist Jerzy Kosiński wrote, “The prin- ciples of true art is not to portray, but to evoke.” SThe same can be said about sports cards. Like art, the value is not in what they’re made of. It’s in what they evoke. It’s how they make you feel. Art and cards are timeless. Both are creative expressions. They mark history and conjure memories. They tell stories and mold culture. To appreciate them requires imagination. Maybe that’s why they have collaborated so naturally for more than a century. From the colorized images on the early 1900s tobacco cards to the widely popular Topps Project 2020 today, sometimes art and sports cards are one in the same. op — 32 ART OF THE GAME — — ART OF THE GAME 33 — Ink& PAPER Launching the Modern Baseball Card op The evolution of baseball cards took a huge leap forward in the early 1950s as Topps and Bowman battled for dominance in the industry. Led by visionary executive Sy Berger, who is referred to as “the father of the modern baseball card,” Topps brought unique size, designs, player stats, and overall beautiful eye appeal to post-World War II baseball cards. Following the groundbreaking 1952 Topps set, the 1953 release derived its images from miniature oil paintings. The result is the most iconic uniting of artwork and sports cards ever produced. “I designed that 1953 card and was instrumental in getting the painting done,” Berger once told Sports Collectors Digest.

    A Review of the Post-WWII Baseball Card Industry

    A Review of the Post-WWII Baseball Card Industry Artie Zillante University of North Carolina Charlotte November 25th,2007 1Introduction If the attempt by The Upper Deck Company (Upper Deck) to purchase The Topps Company, Inc. (Topps) is successful, the baseball card industry will have come full circle in under 30 years. A legal ruling broke the Topps monopoly in the industry in 1981, but by 2007 the industry had experienced a boom and bust cycle1 that led to the entry and exit of a number of firms, numerous innovations, and changes in competitive practices. If successful, Upper Deck’s purchase of Topps will return the industry to a monopoly. The goal of this piece is to look at how secondary market forces have shaped primary market behavior in two ways. First, in the innovations produced as competition between manufacturers intensified. Second, in the change in how manufacturers competed. Traditional economic analysis assumes competition along one dimension, such as Cournot quantity competition or Bertrand price competition, with little consideration of whether or not the choice of competitive strategy changes. Thus, the focus will be on the suggested retail price (SRP) of cards as well as on the timing of product releases in the industry. Baseballcardshaveundergonedramaticchangesinthepasthalfcenturyastheindustryandthehobby have matured, but the last 20 years have provided a dramatic change in the types of products being produced. Prior to World War II, baseball cards were primarily used as premiums or advertising tools for tobacco and candy products. Information on the use of baseball cards as advertising tools in the tobacco and candy industries prior to World War II can be obtained from a number of different sources, including Kirk (1990) and most of the annual comprehensive baseball card price guides produced by Beckett publishing.

    NORTHWESTERN UNIVERSITY The Reality of Fantasy Sports: Transforming Fan Culture in the Digital Age A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS for the degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Field of Media, Technology and Society By Ben Shields EVANSTON, ILLINOIS June 2008 2 © Copyright by Ben Shields 2008 All Rights Reserved 3 ABSTRACT The Reality of Fantasy Sports: Transforming Fan Culture in the Digital Age Ben Shields This dissertation analyzes the transformation of fantasy sports from a deviant, outside- the-mainstream fan culture to a billion-dollar industry that comprises almost 20 million North American participants. Fantasy sports are games in which participants adopt the simultaneous roles of owner, general manager, and coach of their own teams of real athletes and compete in leagues against other fantasy teams with the individual statistical performance of athletes determining the outcome of the match and league standings over a season. Through an analysis of how fantasy sports institutions are co-opting an existing fan culture, the dissertation seeks to contribute to an emerging body of scholarship on the communication dynamic between fans and media institutions in the digital age. In order to understand this cultural shift within the context of fantasy sports, it focuses on three research questions: What is the history of fantasy sports? Why do fantasy sports stimulate avid and engaged fan behaviors? How do fantasy sports institutions communicate with fantasy sports fan cultures? The methodology employed in this study combines both an ethnographic approach and textual analysis. Personal interviews were conducted with fifteen decision makers from fantasy sports companies such as SportsBuff, Rotowire, Fantasy Auctioneer, Mock Draft Central, Grogan’s Fantasy Football, CBS Sportsline, and ESPN.

I lusted after the various sports games advertised in the magazines until my mom finally relented and bought Strat-O-Matic Football for me in 1972. I got SOM’s baseball game a year later and I was hooked. I would get the new card set each year and attempt to play the in-progress season by moving the traded players around and turning ‘nameless player cards” into that year’s key rookies. I switched to APBA in the late ‘70’s because they started releasing some complete old season sets and the idea of playing with those really caught my fancy. Between then and the mid-nineties, I collected a lot of card sets.
