No idea but it would certainly add value if they could locate a photo of the presentation and it seems to possibly be missing a lid as well.

Damn, those are cool! Having the Powers Day inscribed on the trophy is awesome. So great to be able to link a piece of memorabilia to a specific day in history.

Damn, I bet watching all the contests was really something! That’s a damn good day of baseball. Happy there was some fun for everyone, during such a sad memorial.
Great article, thanks for sharing, Bob
