After seven seasons of ineptitude, the Mets shocked the world in 1969, dramatically reversing course and winning the World Series over the heavily-favored Baltimore Orioles. To commemorate that phenomenal achievement, famed artist Arthur Sarnoff - one of the 20th Century's greatest American illustrators - painted this Shea Stadium scene with Art Shamsky batting in front of an adoring crowd. Framed to measure 45" x 33", the artwork is in NM-MT condition, though the frame shows some wear.
