Hank Aaron

Henry Louis Aaron, also known as Hammerin’ Hank Aaron, amassed more home runs than any other hitter in the game.* Over 23 seasons, he hit a total of 755 dingers, surpassing Babe Ruth’s record of 714 on April 8, 1974. He played his first 21 seasons with the Braves, the first 12 of which were in Milwaukee before the franchise moved south, while his final two years were a return to Cream City with the Brewers. This poster design recaptures the moment Hammerin’ Hank broke the home run record and hit 715 with multi-tonal vector graphics and gold accents that represent the timeless nature of the feat.
