The Baseline Review
We love hoops, history, and the art of printmaking. That's why we are creating a book that celebrates 50 iconic players in NBA history. We’ve teamed up with over 40 amazing writers—and illustrators—to dig into these inspiring tales from the hardwood! We've assembled a creative dream team for this book. We are so hyped on the work and hope you will be, too! The target date for the complete book is Fall 2027 and will be released in collaboration with a major publisher like our friends at Random House, Insight Editions, or Abrams (details TBA). The Baseline Review is produced by Editor-in-Chief JP Boneyard & Fifty-Nine Parks.

SCREENPRINTED STORIES?
Ok, so you’re probably thinking “Why the H would you make screenprinted—and giclee—versions of these stories?” We’re leaning into our printmaking background to make something unique that will also help us kickstart the rest of the content for the full book. In short, when you buy an individual story for your favorite player and we will use those funds to produce the next story.
A portion of the sale of each stand-alone story is donated to basketball youth programs in the USA.
