Tremendous tri-fold advertising sign pairs America's two great passions: baseball and chewing tobacco. They couldn't have picked a more imposing sight to help market this tobacco product. It is the unmistakable massive expanse of Yankee Stadium's center field, which is seemingly endless. Right field still looks tantalizingly short though, and that's a good thing, because one can easily recognize the Babe at the plate, ready to drop one into the photographer's lap. Typical wear for a piece of this age give this rarity a technical VG grade, although this belies the overall eye appeal of this great piece. If this isn't the thing that catches the most eyes in your trophy room, then you must have a lot of great stuff. Colors and details are absolutely captivating. In terms of size and intrigue, few pieces can beat this.
