These charcoal drawings are skillfully executed facial portraits of Boston Celtic players. They were drawn by noted sports artist Charles Linnett and measure approximately 8 1/2" by 11". A facsimile autograph of the player is written across the lower right, the Celtics' logo appears in the lower left, and the backs are blank. The drawings are unnumbered and checklisted below in alphabetical order. The set is very similar to the Linnett Milwaukee Bucks set of the same year. A 1969 NBA Properties copyright is printed in the lower left corner of the card and a 1973 NBAPA copyright is printed on the wrapper of the two-card package in which they were sold. The set is dated by the fact that Steve Downing and Phil Hankinson's first year with the Boston Celtics was 1973-74. [Collapse]
