Last night more than 1,200 VIPS, legandary Dodger, Giant
Yankee players and fans attended the private opening
of The Glory Days of Baseball (1947-1957) exhibit
The exhibit tells the story of when New York was not only
the capital of the world, but the capital of baseball as
well. Between 1947-1957 a New York team was in
the World Series a total of 10 (missing only 1948)
and won 7 World Series (Yankees 5, Dodgers 1, Giants 1)
Rare memorabillia from some of the country's most
distingusihed collectors including Stephen Wong,
Gary Cypress and Bill Gladstone was on display,
In addition to an endless array of items from the
Glory Days era, you will find a number of 19th
century New York area team cabinets, early Negro
League items and stunning examples of Mint
early Topps baseball cards.
We were proud to be a major lender to the exhibit
and look forward to your visit.
