“Sugar Bowl 1978: Alabama Vs. Ohio State”  Signed and Numbered *Limited Edition Original Serigraph

Painted Area: 22″ x 33″

Numerical Edition Size: 275

This is the Last One Available! Number 72.

“Limited Edition” refers to the fact that there is only a certain amount, or “limited” number of serigraphs printed of a specific piece of artwork.  After the edition is printed, all of the original artwork and screens used to make the print are destroyed or effaced.  This ensures that no additional prints of this image will be made in the future.  This is the opposite of an “Open Edition,” where public demand determines the number of pieces included in an edition.

The limited life of the stencil prevents unlimited editions.  Additionally, variables in the process of hand-pulling serigraphs mean that each individual serigraph is slightly different from each other serigraph in the edition.  Minor deviations in color registration, paint distribution, and variations yield individual pieces that are truly “one-of-a-kind” or “original.”

 

This serigraph depicts the 1978 post-season game between the University of Alabama Crimson Tide and the Ohio State Buckeyes. This was the first and only game in which America’s two legendary coaches, Paul “Bear” Bryant and Woody Hayes, would meet – as Hayes would retire during the next season.

Alabama was victorious by a score of 35-6, allowing only a single touchdown – giving the Crimson Tide it’s claim to #1 in the Nation. Rick Rush chose to highlight the second down marker on the sideline because throughout the game, the Tide was able to convert their second down opportunities.

“I thought Rick did an excellent job with what he had to work with. He captured the dedication I thought our players showed in beating Ohio State. We plan to hang the picture in our trophy room, so that future generations of Alabama fans can walk down memory lane.”
– Coach Paul “Bear” Bryant, 1978
