Own an all-time Chicago sports classic! This is the legendary "Fans Shed Light On The Game" poster, featuring the photographic fantasy from the brilliant mind of local airbrush artist Scott Mutter. During the era before the lights were installed at Wrigley Field, Mutter always wondered to himself - what would it take to play baseball there after dark? He discovered the fantasy answer - FLASHLIGHTS! Yes, with hundreds of fans shining electric torches onto the field, the Cubs and Cardinals could finally get a game in under the lights.

With Mutter's unique blend of photographic images, airbrushing, and darkroom manipulation in the era before Photoshop, he was able to bring his fantasy alive, and into the hearts and minds of millions of Chicago Cubs fans the world over! From the moon's appearance high above the clouds, to the Chicago skyline lit brilliantly in the distance, to the glorious old Wrigley Field as it stood in the 1980s, to the fans participating in the massive lighting experiment, and the action on the field (runners on first and second, ground ball to shortstop, everyone on the move), to the artist's name, and title for the piece ("Fans shed light on the game"), it's all here - pure poster perfection! A true classic, giving you baseball action, historical impact, and ultra-sharp black-and-white style. Grab yours now while you can - limited quantity remains in our warehouse.
