This picture collage salutes the first Houston baseball team - the Houston Colt 45's who changed their name to the Astros in 1965 when the Astrodome opened and the Colt 45's were renamed the Astros in its honor. The collage features Topps cards from the era that depict 20 of the players from that first team including manager Harry Craft as well as a picture of their home field when the Colts opened their season in 1962. Card images are 1 1/4" x 1 3/4" or about one third the size of a real card. This is a great collectible for any baseball fan.

Please note that we can make up a similar collage for any team between 1950-1990. E-mail us for details.

I make all these collages by hand. As a history buff as well as a lover of old movies and all types of sports, the key to each picture is the research behind it. Deciding what movies should go with a particular star or what game or series would best reflect a certain sports hero is crucial to a successful collage. I then design each picture individually and lay out the design on the mat. Finally, I cut each mat based on that design and assemble the collage.
