His artworks are found in monthly issues of playboy magazine, has been used in promotion for the Olympics and Super Bowl and completed along the sidelines of many other sporting events. Neiman was widely regarded as the greatest living artist at the time of his death in 2012. The Prestigious Heritage Auction House has recently stated, "Though Neiman has long served as the most recognizable American artist of the post-war era, his recent passing has added rocket fuel to the fire of his market, with four of his works soaring into six-figure territory in recent Heritage auctions. We expect the climb in pricing to continue, and for smart investors to be paying close attention when this classic work hits the block."
