PRESS RELEASE

Over the past five years, Daniel Duffy has sold more than 5,000 signed prints at public appearances, at the Philadelphia Phillies’ Citizens Bank Park, through Major League Baseball (www.shop.mlb.com) and on his Lionword Illustrations website (www.lionword.com). Yet never before has this rising star been formally introduced to a national audience, and never before has he made his original artworks available for public or private sale…until now.


Legendary Auctions will stage the world premiere of The TextART and StampART of Daniel Duffy with five flagship pieces in its November 28-29 Catalog Auction:

• StampART Yogi Berra (“Yankee Yogi”)
• TextART Yogi Berra (“Yogi-isms”)
• TextART Abraham Lincoln (“The Freedom Trilogy, Part I – Lincoln’s Second Inaugural Address”)
• TextART Martin Luther King Jr. (“The Freedom Trilogy, Part II – King’s ‘I Have a Dream’ Speech”)
• TextART Barack Obama (“The Freedom Trilogy, Part III – Obama’s First Inaugural Address”)

Tried something new that I think is pretty cool. This portrait of Darren Daulton is made entirely from tiny “Dutch” signatures. Check them out on the gallery page.

That’s right! Just got word today of an initial order of “Road to the World Series” posters. Stay tuned to hear my acceptance speech.

This site is currently being worked on. Take a look around but be sure to send me an email so I can notify you when the site is completed. (guessing 4/1)

Soooooooo? What do you want my next piece to be?

What legacy lives on in you?  We are inspired by words.  We are inspired by images. Not from one, nor the other, rather by the ways we weave words and images together are how we create a legacy.

Text Illustrations by Daniel Duffy are a unique way of expressing those legacies.  These are the words and images that have captured a place in our hearts.

Within each image you will find the full text of some of the most famous speeches, songs, scorecards, and transcripts from some of the most famous men, women, teams, and artists of all time.  What legacy lives on in you?
