George Sosnak Hand Painted Baseballs Self-taught as an artist, George Sosnak (1924-1992) had devoted his life to the game as a fan, player and minor league umpire, even when that meant holding a day job as well. His best-known works are actual manufactured baseballs intricately decorated for a special occasion with India ink and then hand colored. He made around 800 during his lifetime. His work is on display in such museums as the Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, NY and at the American Folk Museum in NYC. His works are the real deal. When you buy a Sosnak ball you not only buy a one of a kind piece of baseball historical memorabilia, but you are buying artwork that has been displayed in some of the finest institutions in the world.
