The Enforcer

John Hannah — the greatest offensive lineman in football history

It is consensus among players and coaches at collegiate and professional levels that John Hannah is the greatest offensive lineman in football history — included in every Hall of Fame, making the judgement seriously authentic.

John played the offensive line position with a defensive frame of mind, dominating his opponent time after game-extensive time. Coach Paul W. Bryant called him the most dominant offensive lineman he had ever coached.

Artist Steve R. Skipper has produced an original painting and limited edition celebrating the illustrious career of “The Enforcer” — the one who put warranted fear in the hearts of any defensive player who happened to be in his blocking alley.

Courage Under Fire — preliminary drawing for the Hank Aaron commemorative painting by Steve R. Skipper
Unveiling February 2027

Courage Under Fire

The Hank Aaron commemorative — preliminary drawing for the coming original painting

Henry Aaron was one of the most iconic baseball players in history. The chronicle of his career is nothing short of legendary, and the inspiration he distributed will forever be available and in powerful supply.

The Hank Aaron Family and Estate has formally commissioned renowned Royal Collection celebrated artist Steve R. Skipper to produce an original painting and limited edition celebrating the legacy of Mr. Aaron as a lasting source of inspiration to fans all over the world.

Mr. Aaron’s breaking of the home run record of Babe Ruth is a major but small part of his legend. The journey to the top of baseball slightly pales in comparison to the kind of man he was off the field, and the magnitude of a difference that he made in the individual lives of millions.

This is a very strict value-appreciating limited edition, worthy in quality to be an heirloom handed down from generation to generation.

“As far as I’m concerned, Aaron is the best ball player of my era… He is to baseball of the last 15 years what Joe DiMaggio was before him.” Mickey Mantle
“I don’t want people to forget Babe Ruth. I just want them to remember Henry Aaron.” Hank Aaron
