Ozzie Smith signed 16x20 framed collage featuring a hand signed story about his iconic "flip" he uses to do at his games!!

This handwritten message penned message reads:
''It began as a way to show my padre teammates I wasn't tired during running drills at spring training. I had honed my gymnastic skills as a kid playing on a trampoline so to show my energy was still intact, I did a round off backflip in fronts of the veterans like Gaylord Perry and Dave Winfield. The padres PR department saw it and asked me to do it for fan appreciation day. After that, I did the flip running to my position at the first and last game of every season. It became my trademark. For me, the flip symbolizes the youthful exuberance and joy I felt while playing the game I love."

the frame features a black wooden frame measuring 27.5" x 27.5" and includes a laser-cut title "the flip" with museum-quality suede matting, a nameplate depicting information about the player and team with team logos!
