Wolfson and ends up printed directly on the cover of an all-American baseball. Unforgettaballs offers these unique items for about $15 USD. The balls feature many designs including other sports items, baseball stadiums, dogs, and kid themes. "After selling many [handpainted baseballs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/king-of-diamonds) for hundreds of dollars each, we have designed a careful process that maintains the original character and brilliance of Wolfson's paintings while ensuring a final [decorative ball](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wilson-and-apple) that is both durable and reasonably priced." **Implications** - When someone is a sports fan, they are likely a sports fan forever. This kind of loyalty is what brands everywhere dream of.
