Surrounded by letters from the Japanese alphabet, this program from the New York Giants Japan tour features a robust painting of Willie Mays jumping to catch a ball. The same year that the Detroit Tigers would do a Japan tour, the Giants went overseas to see what their Asian counterparts could do with the American pastime. Printed on light paper stock, this program commemorates the meeting of East and West on the baseball field. Small, largely unnoticeable rip at top, in very good condition.
