Show Off Your Yankees Stuff
 

As a huge Yankees fan and novice collector, I am very curious to see what Yankee items everyone has in their collections. I loooooove looking at Yankees goodies, so show them off here!

Mike

How far back do you want to go? 1903? 1920s?

As far back as you'd like. I love seeing them all.

Mike

Here's a link to our website and the section where some of our NYY collection is reflected...

OK. Let's begin with the Yankees' first year, 1903. Here's a scorecard from Hilltop Park:

Can't begin to compete with all that... but here's my modest Yankees collection...

Few more...

yankeesjetsfan - Thanks for starting this thread.

I've already seen at least two "holy grails" (can there be more than one?). Thanks for sharing those pictures David and Mark.

I am in the midst of packing up for a long distance move next month. Much of what I have is already packed. Just as well though, because I would be practically embarrassed to show post next to some of these things.

Nonetheless, if I get a chance I will see if there is anything worthwhile still unpacked.

Hope to see a lot more great yankees items. Thanks Again!

Odds'n'ends in no particular order . . .

That ruth clock is awesome!

My Yankee collection is a little more modern. Here is my favorite piece. I dont have anything displayed at the moment. Ill post a little at a time of what I do own each day.

Sh!t David, I had no idea you had a program from the Chesbro wild pitch game!! That's gotta be one of the most notorious moments in the entire history of the franchise, and it rarely gets talked about these days...then again, I guess the same goes for Chesbro.

Bravo!

Thanks, Graig. But simply owning something doesn't rate a "Bravo."
(Your talent, on the other hand, certainly does.)

David as always those baseballs blow me away! That Ruth 1928 ball has to be one of the best Ive seen..:eek:
A few pieces I have
Munson 1977 world series jersey.
Some great Pins and some nice photos.

....my god!! There is some great stuff in this thread.

Some of my favorites
 

My Steve Sax Gamer

Not that old
 

Joe D

Monte Pearson- Hurled 1st no-hitter at historic Yankee Stadium
 

Yankee's hurler Monte Pearson was the 1st to ever pitch a no-hitter at historic Yankees Stadium on August 27, 1938.

Many others followed, including Bob Feller (his 2nd of 3 no-hitters), Allie Reynolds (his 2nd of 2 no-hitters in 1951), Don Larsen (perfect game), Dave Righetti, Jim Abbott, Doc Gooden, David Wells (perfect game), David Cone (perfect game) and most recently Roy Oswalt, Munro, Saarloos, Lidge, Dotel and Wagner in a 6 man combo no-hitter.

Here is a toast to Monte Pearson the first to do it....

I don't have much in the way of vintage Yankees memorabilia (just cards), but below are pictures of two of my favorite items--a game used ball from Game 6 of the 1952 World Series (Mantle hit his first World Series home run in this game) and a game used ball from Game 7 (Mantle hit his second World Series home run in this game).

http://sports.mearsonlineauctions.co...8573a_med.jpeg

http://sports.mearsonlineauctions.co...88577a_lg.jpeg

I think these came from a ball boy or something, and there is another from game 2 out there with the same handwriting. Unfortunately, I don't own it yet and couldn't afford it even if I did have a shot at it. So, for now, I'll enjoy these.

Love that Sax game used bat. I was a Sax fan when he played with the Yankees.

Great Pearson items.

Mike

There is no way I can compete with what has been shown here (Incredible stuff!) but I do have these, which I cherish.
It's a pic of my Uncle Sam at the 1958 WS with Mickey Mantle and Dizzy Trout.
My Uncle's friend, Norm, is the closest to Mick, and that is Dizzy Trout in the middle.
I missed an opportunity (my own fault) to purchase a 1958 WS ticket stub sometime ago so if anyone currently has one for sale, please let me know. I think it would go great with this pic.

Another, although it's a card and doesn't necessarily go with the theme of this thread, imo, anyways, it is worth showing.

Just keeping the momentum going on this great thread....

More Joe D and Mick stuff. Sorry to you die-hard Yankee guys for Teddy's rude photobomb. :p

Sideways Pins!

Here are some random ones of my collection. Hal Chase game used glove.

Gehrig and Ruth signed ball

1920 game used Yanks vs. Cleveland baseball. Babe first year. Chapman 2 hits for Cleveland and would be dead less than 2 months later.

Babe Type I

Former coach Art Fletcher autograph for Bradley Sweaters advertisement.

Babe Type I 1926 World Series.

Last known photo taken of Babe Ruth the day before he died, Type I

Art Fletcher bat

Ty and Mickey Type I

Firrrrrrrerrrreeeeee

I just seen a very similar picture today that was taken more sideways rather than frontal like yours. (Same time/day, just a different angle)

I believe it was in, Leon's, Babe Ruth tab at the top right of the site but I just went back 17 pgs and can no longer find it? :confused:

The photo had a lot clearer, more whole face pic, if you will, of the Babe and it mentioned something of the other guy in the photo being a Mayor of a large city somewhere.

To be honest, when I first seen it, I sadly didn't even recognize Babe. He looked that rough, unfortunately.

Yes. A large city. A very large city.
That's the mayor of New York City.

I had drawn a blank while intently looking for the similar pic I had seen today.
I thought the poster might be interested in seeing/obtaining it?

Mantle Day Pennant
 

I've posted this before in the "Hey Pennant Guys" thread, but it fits in here too, so I hope you don't mind.

oops. Double post

Awesome items everyone!!!!! Recently had another child, so unfortunately had to lose my memorabilia room temporarily. Everyhthing is boxed up and in storage, but can add this.:

Game Used Baseball from Opening Day April 12, 1959 Yankees beat Boston 3-2. Ball is from the Bob Turley collection

Attachment 276855

Oh, you'd have no trouble refusing the offer that I can afford as I'm sure it's miles apart from what you'd would like to get. :D

A few of my favorites

Some of my Yankee stuff...I'm almost embarrassed that I have any at all:o

Such truly amazing items in this thread. Brendan - game used Hal Chase mitt is so very cool; especially considering he was such a great fielder.

Mark S - i have never seen that pennant with 'Champions' going down the side. 1936? Is it particularly rare?

For me, as a Mets fan I don't seek out Yankees stuff but here's one item that i own that I wanted to post. According to retrosheet, only 15,000 fans at Griffith Stadium saw Babe play his last game as a Yankee. End of such an era.

Great thread.

Peter,
That truly is a historic ticket. Nice! :cool:

I like that Mays has the featured spot! :p

Babe Ruth last game as a Yankee ticket
 

+1 Very nice!
P.S. I'll trade you my Mets stuff for your Yankees stuff :D

Catching up on the thread. Some awesome stuff posted over the weekend. Ticket stub to the Babe's last game as a Yankee, Hal Chase's glove...

Speaking of Chase, I have seen that Highlanders program before and always wondered why the artist drew him in a kilt. Obviously, the artist was playing up on what I guess is Chase's Irish heritage, but I always found it odd it would be put onto a baseball program.

Mike

I found this description from some early postcards that might explain the kilt.

These composite postcards of the 1911 New York Highlanders, 1911 Giants and 1910 Philadelphia A's comprise a unique series from The Sporty Postal Card Co. of Newark, NJ. These cards adhere to themes predominant in each team's positioning. NY manager Hal Chase is cast as the kilt - wearing leader of the team, a reference to The Gordon Highlanders, a British Army regiment recruited mainly from Scotland. A's owner

Great thread! So many great items. Here are a few of my Yankee items.


- 1949 Larry "Yogi" Berra All Star game bat from Brooklyn.

- 1933 Yankees vs As program. Babe Ruth hit 2 HRs that game off of Lefty Grove.

- Yankee Stadium Seats

And a section of bleacher seating
 

A 4.5 ft section of Yankee Stadium bleacher seating. Removed after the 1973 season for the renovations made during 1974-75.

The seat looks light blue in the picture, but it is grey.

Dave Righetti's No-Hitter
 

My ticket stubs and a couple of the photos I took at Dave Righetti's no-hitter on George Steinbrenner's birthday, 1983.

http://i997.photobucket.com/albums/a...psghyj76pi.jpg

My lone Yankee autograph.Attachment 277210

Those Yankee Stadium seats and bleacher bench are beautiful. I have always wanted to own Yankee Stadium seats.

YankeeFan, I was supposed to have been at Righetti's no no. Had tickets and everything, but got punished by my step dad for something really dumb. He was a real jerk and I disliked him even more after the game.

Mike
