The "Duke of Flatbush" was the Dodgers' revered center fielder for the last 11 years of their run in Brooklyn, anchoring the outfield for the revered 1955 club that finally won the crown. The following season, Duke Snider wore these Size 36 pants that features a Rawlings Hall of Fame flannel tag and Snider 56 chain-stitched on a strip tag in blue. There's a Set 1 1956 Flag tag below a team repair by the Knee but otherwise is in great shape. The pants were given to a minor-leaguer named Caruso in 1957. He was a member of the Dodgers' Rookie Roster that year. Snider was an eight-time All-Star and was elected to the Hall of Fame in 1980. He won World Series as a Dodger in both Brooklyn and Los Angeles.
