SOLD Poker Room Decor, Part 2: Stu Ungar & Doyle Brunson Photo (1 Viewer)

[WedgeRock]

A friend of mine asked me to help him list this here. From the seller:

"Next up for sale is:

A framed photo of Stu Ungar and Doyle Brunson heads-up at the 1980 WSOP Main Event.

This print was purchased directly from the photographer Ulvis Alberts who took the photo at the 1980 WSOP. I had the black & white photo custom matted in green and framed in black wood with museum glass. It measures 23 inches wide and 19 inches tall.

Shipping this piece is very expensive. A custom box and packing materials has to be constructed for it. I've included shipping plus insurance in my asking price to the lower 48 states. Additional shipping costs may apply. I will ship international but the buyer will be responsible for any costs over my asking price.

Asking price is $600."

If you have any questions, let me know and I'll get answers for you.

The seller is a friend of mine that I've known for 15 years. I will personally vouch for him. He asked me to post this for him because I waste alot of time on this site I'm well-known around here.

I will accept Paypal F&F for the seller. Other cash-based arrangements may be possible, just ask.

The seller will accept offers. Shipping costs waived for local pickup (southwest Michigan area).

I’d be all over this if I had my poker room set up. It would go right next to my 10-2 off suit poster that has been in storage for years.

In 1980, I think they were just using Binions cash chips

What is “museum glass”?

What is “museum glass”?

Expensive glass that protects the image from damage from light.

This is great. If it was local, I’d be tempted.

It's distinctive qualities are exceptional clarity and being non-reflective. It doesn't have any special protective qualities of which I'm aware...

Now: who can name any of the other people in the photo? 8

Sweet picture!

 

[abby99]

Museum glass blocks 99% of UV light rays.

 

[Klobberer]

Awesome! Stu is my favorite poker player of all time. Wife would kill me. Framing alone is probably worth $300...glws.

Fair warning: the seller is negotiating terms with at least one potential buyer.

Not 100% sure, but I think I see Bobby Baldwin, Eric Drache and Jack Straus to the left of Brunson.

What a great piece of Poker history.

PM sent. (I own the photographer’s amazing nook.)

 

[Mongoose]

Very cool

 

[FDLmold]

Paul Anka on the right in the back. And two of them look like the guy nicknamed Eskimo.

 

[Mongoose]

73 entrants back then. Unger took down $365,000. Times change

Yup you can kind of see them in the old WSOP videos I found.
I have 1979 and 1981. I wish they had 1980 somewhere that was the
year ID love to watch.

Its why I almost like those old chips a bit more for the history wise.
They started the WSOP with just the old cash chips in the earl days

It measures 23 inches wide and 19 inches tall.
