Speirs' Tie-Dyed Skullman®, Slam-dunking a flaming basketball, with the block letters Lithuania, gained international fame and the trademarked Slammin Skeleton® & Lithuania Tie Dye® Brands were launched. The brands have enjoyed longevity of almost three decades being marketed through Skullman.com continuously since 1992.
The Lithuanian Slam-Dunking Skullman® on Tie-Dye T-Shirts represented the artist's interpretation of a team rising from nothing, "Like a Phoenix from the ashes to slam-dunking a flaming basketball to bronze victory. It's not a dead skeleton, but represents rebirth and a new life. It was not only a victory in Olympic sports, but it was as if it were a triumph over communism itself," recalled Speirs, featured in the 2012 basketball documentary movie, "The Other Dream Team"http://www.imdb.com/name/nm3998173/
