Wolfson is known for transforming ordinary white baseballs into remarkable original works of art with her Unforgettaballs!®, which represent a gift that celebrates the historic spirit at the heart of "America's pastime" while showcasing the cutting-edge technology of today. Both fun and inspiring, each design began as spectacularly detailed miniature paintings by Wolfson, which can be played, displayed, personalized and customized, making a treasured collectible and truly special gift for men, women and children of all ages. The Yankee Stadium balls are prints from hand painted originals that show the buildings, from both the outside views and the inside views, and depicts the beauty of the old and new landmark.

"This collection is a beautiful evolution of Yankee Stadium," says Wolfson. "As with all of my other designs, these started as small, original paintings which were intended for the spherical format. Yankee Stadium is the home ballpark for New York and this collection is a combination of a wonderful history with stunning architectural details. A new era is born for Yankee Fans!"

Wolfson's painted baseballs of historical landmarks, such as the Yankee Stadium baseballs, are her best-sellers and have now become collector's items. They make a perfect gift for fans along with her other designs of baseball fields, such as Shea Stadium, Wrigley Field and Citizens Bank Park.

Dramatically different from anything in the marketplace, Unforgettaballs!® represent the finest collection of artwork printed on genuine baseballs in the world. More than three-quarters of a million have been sold since Wolfson hand-painted her first white leather, red-stitched baseball with an intricate flag design as a gift for her husband in 1994. This launched Unforgettaballs!® and a whole new career for Wolfson, a former architect. Since then, the North Jersey native and working mother of two has created more than 70 paintings for design on a baseball, commemorating everything from stadiums to cities, holidays to hobbies, life-cycle events and more, along the way developing a proprietary printing process in order to faithfully replicate the exceptional detailing coloration of each original work of art.

Available through catalogues and fine retail stores as well as online, the full collection of Unforgettaballs!® can be viewed and ordered through the Company's website: www.unforgettaballs.com. Wolfson's painted Unforgettaballs!® baseballs are artistic renderings and are not related to MLB.
