Growing up in Philadelphia in the 1950s as a pre-teen, I only had a chance to go to one of these ballparks, Connie Mack Stadium (aka Shibe Park). I must have gone 100 times, always trying see Robin Roberts pitch.   The other big issue was who was in the starring cast of the road team.

I think I must have seen all of the stars of the day.   The big question was, “Who is going to beat the Phillies this time?”  I remember thinking, “Oh no, not Stan Musial again.” …or Willie Mays, or Duke Snider.  Being the oldest of 10 grandchildren, my wise grandmother figured the way to her grandchildren’s heart could be through baseball, and the 2 of us went together all the time.

And as much as we loved the Phillies, it was always a thrill to see Roberto Clemente, Ernie Banks or Henry Aaron come to town.  It was a great time to love baseball, and little did I know at the time I would have a career publishing ballpark art. -Bill Goff

I truly believe Bill Goff Inc / goodsportsart.com is the most exciting place on the internet to find good baseball art.  BASEBALL!  ART! HISTORY!  in a nutshell.

From Hilltop Park to Yankee Stadium, from a Brooklyn Dodgers jersey to Derek Jeter’s uniform, from Babe Ruth’s called shot to Henry Aaron’s 715th home run to David Cone’s perfect game, from Ebbets Field to Dodger Stadium, from Shibe Park to Connie Mack Stadium to Veterans Stadium to Citizens Bank Ballpark, we have it all (almost).

For ballpark art prints, action art prints, great moment art prints, still life art prints and player art prints, we have the most diversified, complete portfolio. I have been in this business since 1977 and I think I have seen it all. I would be interested to receive any feedback on this subject anyone out in cyber-land might care to respond with. – Bill Goff
