Nettles, Rickey, Parker and Conception Were My Friends

Celebrate baseball history with a design inspired by four unforgettable vintage players: Nettles, Rickey, Parker, and Concepcion! Bold varsity-style white lettering on navy, a classic baseball graphic, and the phrase “Were Friends of Mine” give this print a fun, nostalgic personality.

In fact, this is the title of the movie my friend Steve Greenstein filmed in New York, which will debut in the Bronx at the end of September 2026! GO STEVE! 

Steve is not only a filmmaker, he is a veteran actor with an extensive career in film, television, and theatre.

He is also a die-hard baseball enthusiast!

Just like his vintage appearances in Growing Pains, Seinfeld and Law Order, his love of 1970-80’s baseball is featured in his short film. He lives and breathes baseball, knows his stats, and, of course, has plenty of vintage baseball cards.

So this print is not only great for all of us who love baseball; it is also a definite nod to Steve, who is sharing his creativity and love of the game with all of us!

Perfect for longtime baseball fans, collectors, and anyone who remembers the excitement of the game’s golden years, this conversation-starting design brings together legendary names in a playful tribute to America’s favorite pastime.
