A Glimpse into Baseball History

Step back in time with this extraordinary framed collection, celebrating the legendary New York Yankees of 1961. This meticulously curated piece offers a window into one of the most celebrated eras in baseball history, featuring a combination of autographed photographs and a vintage program that captures the essence of the Yankees’ golden age.

The 1961 Official Program and Scorecard

At the heart of this collection lies the “NEW YORK YANKEES – 1961 – OFFICIAL PROGRAM AND SCORECARD,” a relic priced at a mere 15 cents during its time. This program is a testament to the Yankees’ dominance in the early 1960s, a period marked by their remarkable World Series victory. The program is surrounded by eight 8” x 10” autographed photos, each a piece of history in its own right.

Autographed Legends

The collection features a stunning array of autographed photographs, each signed by a Yankee legend:

• Clete Boyer, Tony Kubek, Bobby Richardson, and Joe Pepitone: A group photo capturing the camaraderie and skill of these iconic players.
• Mickey Mantle: The legendary center fielder, known for his powerful switch-hitting prowess.
• Elston Howard: The first African American player in Yankees history, a trailblazer and MVP.
• Ralph Houk: The esteemed manager who led the Yankees to multiple championships.
• Roger Maris: Known for his record-breaking 61 home runs in 1961, though JSA was unable to authenticate his signature.
• Whitey Ford: The “Chairman of the Board,” a dominant pitcher with an illustrious career.
• Yogi Berra: The beloved catcher and three-time MVP, who signed in black marker.
• Bill “Moose” Skowron: A key player in the Yankees’ lineup, known for his clutch hitting.

Each signature, rendered in blue marker except for Berra’s in black, is a near-perfect 10 in our expert opinion, adding immense value and allure to this collection.
