Brian Dawkins Teams Up with Spector Sports Art for Limited-Edition Trading Card
Published:
Jordan Spector is a popular local artist who does all kinds of unique sports-related work. His latest project is a sick collaboration with Brian Dawkins on a limited-edition trading card:
The image is a recreation of the famous flying tackle, meshed with the Wolverine “Weapon X” concept. That alone is gnarly, but there are a lot of cool little easter eggs mixed in with this drop. For instance, of the 2,020 available cards, 61 will be autographed, 61 signifying Dawk’s draft position. Because he was drafted in 96, there are 96 “green foil and rainbow foil edition cards” within the set. There are also 18 base foil autographed cards, representing Brian’s 2018 Hall of Fame induction. And similar nuggets for 13 and 9, signifying the 13 seasons he played for the Eagles and nine Pro Bowls he earned.
It’s a really cool collab. The cards are $75 each at SpectorSportsArt.com, with proceeds benefiting the Brian Dawkins Impact Foundation.
