Year:1975
Sport:Pocket Billiards
Matted lithograph of original 1975 Leroy Neiman mixed media (ink & colored markers) drawing of Willie Mosconi pocket billiards exhibition videotaped by ABC-TV (see “abc” TV camera upper right) on Jan 17, 1975 at the New York Athletic Club for broadcast on Feb 16, 1975 Wide World of Sports hosted by Howard Cosell. Willie’s manager, Charles Ursitti, told me that Mosconi challenged WWoS producer Roone Arledge* to attempt Willie’s famous “Butterfly” (3-cue ramp) trick shot, which he made! It is somewhat faded because of lack of UV-resistant glass in original frame (not received by myself), mostly in the yellow spectrum, as evidenced by comparison to the online images of the original art as shown. An art conservator contacted by myself responded that she would be forbidden by official industry constraints from restoration of the original coloring, even though this is only a lithographic reproduction of the original art! Buy-It-Now buyer of this item will receive both Nielsen-Bainbridge 19″ x 25″ black metal frame kits and 3 Sharpie sets of colored markers, the latter two sets unopened:2 Precision black Ultra Fine Point Permanent Markers (opened)4 Assorted Retractable Highlighters medium point – light red, pink, yellow & blue8 Assorted Fluorescent Highlighters w/ large chisel point – 2 red, 2 yellow, 1 pink, green, blue, & purpleBIN Buyer may use the above extras to restore the original color as in photos 3 & 4, and frame the matted litho, either with a new acid-free matte or as-is (matte has 1/8″ un-faded black border that was covered by former frame, and faded grayish-black predominant color exposed to sunlight because glass used in frame was not UV-resistant). The first 2 photos are of the actual item for sale, the 2nd being a closeup of the faint pencil inscription “To Marty, Best Wishes, Willie” in the upper left corner (It’s a customary practice of celebrities to omit their surname when inscribing signed gift items to friends & colleagues). The 3rd – 5th photos are of the original art – litho by itself, framed, and the COA. (Items NOT INCLUDED) The 6th – 10th photos are of the April 1975 issue of American Billiard Review newspaper showing the genesis of the Willie Mosconi exhibition event immortalized by Leroy Neiman:(Item NOT INCLUDED)6th photo of newspaper masthead7th photo of address label over masthead for Mosconi’s home delivery8th photo of cover picture of Willie setting up his famous “Butterfly” (3-cue ramp) trick shot, with (L to R) his wife Flora, daughters Candace & Gloria in front row, prior to Roone Arledge’s acceptance of Willie’s challenge and resulting successful shot execution9th photo of cover’s bottom caption documenting Feb 16, 1975 telecast of abc’s Wide World of Sports program of his exhibition taped Jan 17, 1975, when Leroy Neiman created his artwork of the event at the NY Athletic Club10th photo of the whole newspaper coverThe 11th photo is the cropped picture of the event that became the cover of the May 14, 2011 Hunts Auction catalog of the Mosconi memorabilia auction compiled by his son Williiam, Jr., and the 12th photo is of the poster promoting the auction at the National Italian American Sports Hall of Fame (NIASHF) museum in Chicago, IL.

A. Dyer’s 2008 book The Hustler & The Champ – Willie Mosconi, Minnesota Fats, and The Rivalry That Defined Pool on page 226, discussing their rivalry, “[participating in boorish hustlers tournaments] Fats claimed he was the greatest hustler, and so he became it. By contrast the great champion [Mosconi] spent the 1970s doing trick shots with Roone Arledge [on TV exhibitions], and nobody much cared….Who could blame him [Mosconi] for wanting his vengeance?” ** This was his favored cue, per the auction description, and would have been the one he used when Leroy Neiman created his artwork, as proven by both the newspaper & auction catalog covers, by comparison of the cue butt sleeve inlays in the cover photos to the photo of the cue in Lot 352 of the Hunt Auction. It should also be noted that the cover photos showing Mosconi in a tuxedo, bowtie, & french cuffs conforms with Neiman’s depiction.
