Spectacular specimen with great history. We have never seen this with the attached ribbon, let alone the presentation box. The New York Yankees played in Japan during a 6-week 1955 Asian goodwill tour in which they went 24-0-1. A handsome metal belt buckle with the team's logo was presented to team members and the face on this one hasn't aged a bit. This one has the original red and white ribbons with Japanese characters imprinted as well as the light wood grain presentation box. Brilliant colors, not a blemish present - MINT condition.
