The Sperry Collectible Card Set • Series 2

I’m very excited to announce the second in a series of premium collectible card sets featuring a curated selection of the most popular rock posters and prints from my extensive archive.

The Sperry Collectible Card Set was artfully designed by renown art photographer and premium book designer Shaun Roberts, and it was curated and published by me. We are thrilled to present this newest collaboration!

The set comes in a gorgeous fire red, smooth, sturdy portfolio fold box with a secure magnetic snap closure. Title and signature is in gold emboss. The inside cover is gloss printed with a beautiful floral pattern over red, as is the black bumper which snugly cradles the deck of poster cards. A red ribbon aids access to the sealed deck of 25 cards.

The cards measure 5.5″ x 8.5″. Each of the 25 collectable cards faithfully present a different classic Sperry

poster on the front. On the back of each card are the poster details; surrounding floral decoration is printed in gold and black with a foil stamped signature.

The box comes shrink-wrapped. The cards come cellophane wrapped inside.

Only 1000 were made.

The Sperry Collectible Card Sets • Series 2 will be made available at two in-person events and later online:

July 13-16, 2023 at the San Francisco Art Book Fair
with Paragon Books at Minnesota Street Project – 1275 Minnesota Street, SF.

July 27-30, 2023 at the Seattle Art Fair
with Harman Projects at booth C15 – Lumen Field Event Center, Seattle.

I will make a very limited online lottery release of The Sperry Collectible Card Sets • Series 2
in August 2023 – exciting new details to be announced soon!
