Hailing from one of the most dominant periods of one of the most dominant teams in all of sports, this 1950s ticket box of the New York Yankees is a treasure. Even by their own standards, the decade was wildly successful. Led by manager Casey Stengel and star players Mickey Mantle, Whitey Ford, and Yogi Berra, the Yanks reeled off four consecutive championships to begin the decade, then added to their tally with Series wins in '56 and '58. This charming sentinel of the era, clad in navy blue with an original number 12 on top, is one of only a handful known. It comes to us by way of a die-hard Yankee fan with an accompanying seat that is also being offered in this auction. This classic, U.S. artifact is a true prize.
