Extremely rare metal stadium chair is in its original green paint. Superb post-Victorian look gives it the feel and splendor of the green grass of the Polo Grounds. Originally came from longtime Giants fan Frank Diller. It was then given to a major journalist in the New York area who wrote a lengthy 1971 Newsday article on it (pictured as well) a copy of which is also included in this lot along with the sportswriter's LOA.
