Additional Details: In Red, White 'n Blue, Dwight Baird subtly includes an unmarked baseball among those painted with existing team logos, symbolizing the anticipation of a future MLB expansion team. The team that was added in the early 2000s is the Washington Nationals, who began play in 2005 after the relocation and rebranding of the Montreal Expos. At the time of Baird's creation, this unmarked baseball could represent the uncertainty and excitement surrounding MLB's expansion and the league's evolving history. The Nationals are now a prominent part of the league, further adding significance to this thoughtful detail in Baird's artwork.
