Being a lifelong diehard Celts fan and following Pierce since I was in middle school, I finally was able to get his Authentic Home Celtics jersey signed (i've had it for many years) after sending it to Steiner Sports for a recent signing. I'm going to hopefully be buying a house in the next couple months, and was hoping for this to be at the center of my mancave.

After talking to a few people and seeing some examples, I've decided I'm going to pony up a bit and have it framed at Sports Displays.com, getting their 'Executive Framing'.
http://sportsdisplays.com/executive-basketball-jersey-framing-c-340-p-1-pr-16390.html
 
For that particular framing, I need to find 2 8x10 pictures of Pierce to purchase and send in.  I was just wondering if anyone had any suggestions on pictures to use.

I definitely want to use one of him holding up the NBA Finals MVP trophy, this particular angle is the one i was hoping for, but I can't find a place that sells the high quality 8x10


Does anyone have any ideas of where I could find that? particular one?  If not, I know the more well known one that's easier to find is this one


For the 2nd picture, it's up in the air which one I will use.  Anyone have any suggestions? One of him popping his Celtics jersey out might be a good idea.

Again I'd need to find not just pictures on the web, but a place I could purchase a high quality version.  If I was to try to get it printed myself, I'd need to find a high quality file of the pic

Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,

~J

That is pretty sweet. If I didn't already have this autographed jersey in looking to frame I may look into that, pretty pricey either way though.

I do love the avatar, I have the same one for my Twitter account. If I decided to go with that, I haven't been able to find anyone that sells a high quality 8x10 of it.  Have you possibly seen it anywhere?

Does anyone know where I could purchase an 8x10 of that particular picture? I've looked everywhere and can't find that specific one, just other angles of it. That's #1 on my list



Also, I'm looking for an 8x10 of the original picture of the one below (with the original background).



Any help would be great, especially for that first pic, I can't find a place to buy the 8x10 anywhere.

I personally always thought using magazine covers is way better than a regular 8 by 10.  I'm pretty sure you can order any past cover straight from Sports Illustrated, and if you can't do the same from SLAM, then you could probably just nab one off ebay.











Although Sporting News (and ESPN) are oversized, but they have some nice covers too (if you wanted to scale it down):

I was FINALLY able to locate the picture of Pierce with the trophy that I was looking for.

Does anyone happen to know of a Web link of the picture below with the original background?




The only one I can find is the one from the Celtics.com site with the photoshopped background. I just wanted to see what the original one looked like to see if it makes sense to use for the 2nd pic. Still going through some other pics too.

Thanks for the help!

I was able to locate the image below, although it's not high enough quality for me to attempt to have it printed.



Either that one or the one below I'd love to purchase an 8x10 of



Anyone happen to have seen either of these available anywhere by chance? Hoping to get this done up soon, so any help would be greatly appreciated. If there is another one similar that's an 8x10, (has to be 10" vertically).

I really like this as well, although I remember this time clearly since I really thought we going to win the series, and it will haunt me that LeBron went nuts on us in Boston and knocked us out.  Either way I need to have a picture that is 8x10 but 10" tall not wide, so that it will fit the template for the framing.  That one is not, and I am also unable to order an 8x10 of it.

I do love that one too, but again, I'd need to find somewhere that I could order a high quality 8x10 of the pic.  Do you happen to know of anywhere? I've gone through many different sites, but I haven't been able to find the exact pictures I'm looking for.  The other option is to find a really high quality image and attempt to have it printed somewhere.

I really do appreciate the help!

Finally getting around to having the money to have the jersey framed, so I'm just looking for that other 8x10 to purchase (has to be 10" vertically)

Anyone by chance stumble on any other Pierce pic I could possibly use (along with the one of him with the trophy earlier in the thread) ? Unfortunately I can't just use any pic from the Web, and I found need to print a good quality 8x10 of it.

Pulling the trigger in the next couple days, any help would be greatly appreciated!
