Default Slightly OT/ Design of the World Series Trophy

My wife's father was a coppersmith/silversmith and for a time in the 1960's worked for Balfour in Attleboro, Massachusetts. They were producers of championship rings as well as military insignia, high school and college rings, pins, commercial insignia, stationery, diplomas and awards. His name was Edgar William Allen and he designed for the Chrysler Eagle among other awards and commemorate medallions. He also designed in 1967, the World Series Trophy, to be presented that year to the St. Louis Cardinals for their victory over the Boston Red Sox. Below is the one picture that we have of my wife's dad posing with his trophy. Sadly, I never got to meet him as he passed away in 1977 when my wife was only six. If anyone has any additional information on the World Series Trophy, I would be extremely grateful. We were able to find his drawings and designs for the Chrysler Eagle among some old family documents, but have never been able to find the World Series Trophy drawings/blueprints.
