Official American League baseball (Harridge) featuring twenty-five black ink signatures from the 1951 World Champion New York Yankees. Notable signatures include Mantle, Berra, Mize, Houk, Lopat, Martin, Reynolds, and McDougald. The year 1951 was a momentous one in Yankees history as the team bid farewell to Joe DiMaggio and welcomed his heir apparent, Mickey Mantle. The transition was certainly a smooth one, as the Yankees captured their third consecutive World Championship (en route to a record five consecutive titles) by defeating the Giants in the World Series. The ball is moderately toned with soiling and several tiny surface abrasions visible throughout. Good condition overall. Please note that the signatures of DiMaggio and Stengel have been deemed clubhouse examples by James Spence/JSA. Full LOA from James Spence/JSA.
