In the mid1700s British and Irish immigrants brought the concept of a bat-and-ball game to America, where it caught on quickly. By the mid1850s, what became known as "baseball" was already being called the "national pastime." It reached the professional level with the founding of the National League in 1876. Today, leagues at many different levels provide opportunities for players of all ages. For nearly three decades, Michael Schwab has built a reputation as one of America's most recognized and best-loved graphic artists. His use of large flat areas of color, dramatic perspectives, and bold yet simple designs make his work easily recognizable. During that same time period, The Posy Collection has been interpreting our major historical sites, prominent natural wonders, and selected graphic arts in cross stitch. This kit is a result of a combination of their efforts aimed at "preserving our story in stitches." Michael Schwab's Play Ball! in cross stitch would be a home run for any baseball fan. - Size:
