Woody Hayes and His All
Americans
Artist Note:
"Painted in 1976 to commemorate Woody Hayes' 25th Anniversary
as head coach at Ohio State University. The coach was originally
surrounded by 37 All-American players. Ten years after his coaching
career ended (1951 to 1978), I added five new players, bringing
Hayes' total to 42 All-Americans in 28 years. The four Buckeye
leaf decals used to illustrate the 4 Heisman Trophies won during
the coach's career are the actual decals still used on the helmets
to this day. In 1986 I took the original art to Coach Hayes and
got it autographed; then I produced 500 Limited Edition prints.
The original autographed artwork is available for $50,000.00."
