Lot 339. Scarce David Geenty Figurine Inspired by Norman Rockwell’s “Bottom of the 6th.” The cover of the April 23, 1949 issue of The Saturday Evening Post featured a baseball classic by Rockwell. His illustration shows three umpires watching raindrops fall and contemplating whether to stop play. In the background, the Brooklyn and Pittsburgh managers discuss the situation. English sculptor David Geenty has captured the scene in three dimensions in this 10” x 5” x 9” tall figurine produced by David Grossman Creations of St. Louis. The sculpture rests on a wood base. A certificate or authen- ticity comes with the numbered figurine. Geentry is known for exceptional detail in his work, and it is evident here. The hand-painted figurine is mint.
Winning Bid $75.
