Original 7" X 5" negative of Billy Martin's game saving catch during Game 7 of the 1952 World Series. The bases were loaded when Jackie Robinson popped up and Joe Collins lost the ball in the sun. Martin made a last second stab that preserved a tenuous 4-2 Yankees lead. Features a beautiful panoramic view of Ebbets Field and features Carl Furillo, Billy Cox, Pee Wee Reese, Robinson, Martin, pitcher Bob Kuzava, Collins, Campenella, Snider and many other well known Dodgers and Yankees. NRMT negative comes in the original wire service envelope and can produce original prints of nearly unlimited size.
