Basketball was invented in Springfield, Massachusetts in 1891 by a physical education instructor. Since then, this thoroughly American sport has risen to iconic status. Interior design is all about surrounding yourself with artwork and collections that inspire you. To ensure your game room, den, or library reflect your interests, you should choose to decorate these personal spaces with what you love, basketball artwork. Look to full-color or black and white photographic prints of armature and professional players to bring realism into your decor. Basketball goal and ball patent diagrams lend detail. Celebrated prints of important magazine covers and famous stadiums round out your collection.
