Additional Details: This reproduction of Redbirds of a Feather by Dwight Baird from the Baseball Collection in the early 1990s cleverly avoids direct references to specific players while honoring the legacy of the Baltimore Orioles. By subtly including jersey numbers, Baird nods to some of the team's greatest players. For the trivia-minded, the numbers likely correspond to: #9 - Frank Robinson: Legendary outfielder and Hall of Famer, key to the Orioles' success in the 1960s and 1970s. #45 - Mike Cuellar: A standout pitcher and Cy Young winner who was a cornerstone of the Orioles' rotation in the late 1960s and early 1970s. #20 - Brooks Robinson: "The Human Vacuum Cleaner," one of the greatest defensive third basemen of all time. #1 - Earl Weaver: The Orioles' iconic manager, known for his fiery personality and tactical brilliance. Baird’s art pays subtle tribute to these Orioles legends, blending creativity with nostalgia for baseball fans.
