This historic Detroit Lions Barry Sanders print was created from a black and white photograph of the giant size Barry Sanders mural, with Barry Sanders in his Detroit Lions uniform bearing the #20 that he made so famous. It is a larger-than-life-size Barry and he appears to be running through the streets of downtown Detroit. The 100 feet by 170 feet mural graced the side of the Cadillac Tower skyscraper for many years, from 1995 to 2002, and was finally covered over and replaced by another Detroit sports icon mural--The Detroit Red Wings Steve Yzerman mural. Not only is he one of the greatest running backs of all time, his gentlemanly conduct and true sportsmanship have made him a real hero to many youngsters who dream of playing professional football. |
