To a Houston Astros fan, this would be the cherry on top of the cake.

Produced for an NBC special is this monstrous 55 1/2" x 31" rendition of the Astrodome. Upon inspection, it is apparent that the dome is not complete. This may have been done so viewers could actually see what the inside looked like.

This is constructed on thick poster cardboard (1/4" thick") and is sturdy. Tape affixed to the reverse is "J.G. Baseball Special 3-25-22" to an official NBC sticker.

The entire world saw the majesty of the Astrodome on this original drawing.
