Nostalgic lot of wire and personal photographs tracing Henrich's Yankee career offers some dramatic and poignant moments. Includes great blowups of him being mobbed at home plate after his HR beat the Dodgers 1-0 in the '49 WS opener (captioned "Old Reliable Does It Again!") and a postgame team singalong as Mel Allen holds a microphone. Others include the ball that struck him out getting by Mickey Owen in the '41 WS, Henrich w/Lou Gehrig, Joe McCarthy, Joe DiMaggio (including one of Joe D singing as Henrich plays piano), Col. Ruppert, etc., and with opponents like Ted Williams & Hank Greenberg; with /other team reps meeting AL president Harridge; and at Old-Timers Days. Some have signatures of Yankee greats. Approx. 30 photos, most EX.
