xix, 209 : 27 cm +, \"'America At The Seams' is a baseball artwork storytelling project successfully crowd-funded Kickstarter in April 2016. Artist Nathan Rueckert was commissioned to create a 5 foot wide map of the United States from old, tattered baseballs obtained directly from 50 persons in 50 states with powerful stories of hope, perseverance, overcoming adversity, and how baseball definitively unites our country. Every old baseball has a story: scuffs from breaking balls in the dirt, ripped seams from countless hours in the cages, and grass stains from years of sacrifice and dedication. Artist Nathan Rueckert makes a case in this once-in-a-lifetime project that this is also America's story.\"--Taken from Amazon.com, Includes hand-drawn artwork on one folded sheet
