George Vlosich III started etching at the age of ten in 1989 on a trip to Washington where he did the Capitol, and the rest is history. His works take up to 40 to 50 hours to complete. They are signed by famous athletes and celebrities from President Clinton to Garth Brooks, Michael Jordan, Cal Ripken, Ken Griffey, Jim Brown, and Ali to his latest meeting with Vice President Al Gore.

He has appeared on Family Channel, CNN, World News Tonight, BBC featuring the Beatles, Regis and Kathy, Nickelodeon with Joe Namath, Fox All Star Game, NBA Inside Stuff, Game of the Week with Michael Jordan.
