1996 Dominique Wilkins Sportsman of the Year T
<B>1996 Dominique Wilkins "Sportsman of the Year" Trophy & 2000 Atlanta Hawks Presentational Artwork.</B></I> One of the game's most prolific scorers and most esteemed slam dunk artists, the man they called "The Human Highlight Film" released these two personally owned artifacts to the hobby in recent years. First, we have a trophy presented by Mayor of Atlanta Andrew Young to the young Hawks superstar, engraved at the base with the words, "1986 Sportsman of the Year, Presented to Dominique 'Unique' Wilkins." A life-size golden basketball sits atop a wooden base for this striking display piece. A small dent at the north pole of the ball causes little visual distraction. Joining the trophy is a large and colorful artwork presented to Wilkins in the year following his retirement from the game he dominated. Matted and framed to an impressive 32x38", the piece is dedicated with an engraved brass plaque at the bottom border, which reads, "Dominique Wilkins, Congratulations on a Stellar Career from the Atlanta Hawks Organization, January 23, 2000." Minor wear to the frame, otherwise NRMT.<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Framed - with Glass, Large (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
