Now that it's baseball season, we wanted to share with you some of the most popular images from the Robert Weaver Collection: the spring training sketchbook. The work below was done on assignment for Sports Illustrated in 1962. Many more of these sketches are available through LUNA.

Awesome! Especially love the one with the player signing autographs. He was right there drawing them! This is what illustration is, could be. Reporting on your experiences and capturing what is going on.

Not quite sure what it is about it, but that last one is one of my favorites, too. Thanks so much for your comment, Bill!
