I had held off purchasing any Super Bowl LVIII collectibles or memorabilia until I found something that I thought was just “awesome”. When I saw this SI Cover, I knew I had to have it. Honestly it’s one of the best photos I’ve ever seen. Along with the captions it captures what Super Bowl LVIII was all about. Your Photog was in the right place at the right time and did a great job of capturing what Chiefs fans all across the country felt at that moment. As you can see I had the perfect place for it, it makes this wall complete and up to date.

Artist's Description
1795 Illustration from Bertuch Bilderbuch Fur Kinder". Saffron - a spice from the stigma of the flower of Crocus sativus - the "saffron crocus". The styles and stigmas, called threads, are collected and dried to be used as a seasoning and food colouring. Worth more than its weight in gold. Amongst the world's costliest spices. It is a genetically monomorphic clone originating in Eurasia (probably Greece) and taken worldwide. It is a "self-incompatible" triploid and male sterile so all propagation is by vegetative multiplication via manual "divide-and-set" of a starter clone or by interspecific hybridisation. It may have emerged via plant breeding selecting for elongated stigmas, in late Bronze Age Crete. Its properties are from chemicals picrocrocin and safranal and a carotenoid pigment, crocin. There is evidence from old cuneiform texts that it has been traded for over 4000 years."
