Yankee Stadium “Home Run 1939 World Series” Sepia-Toned Premium Poster Print – NYGS

Details

Take a step back in time to the golden era of baseball – the days of heavy flannel uniforms, fedora-wearing fans, World Series day games, and some of the greatest Hall of Fame superstars in history! In stunning black-and-white sepia-toned beauty, this poster puts you smack in the middle of the right-field bleachers during Game 2 of the 1939 World Series at Yankee Stadium, at a pivotal moment of that Fall Classic. Playing in place of the ailing Lou Gehrig, first baseman Babe Dahlgren stepped to the plate and teed off for the biggest hit of his career – a shot over the right-field wall that helped lead the Bronx Bombers to a 4-0 victory on the way to a four-game sweep of the Cincinnati Reds and another World Championship. From the classic iron faade, to the red-white-and-blue bunting, to the interior details of the original Yankee Stadium, to the fan fashions of the day, this print has it all, in a stunning white-bordered design that makes it appropriate for a basement wall, an office decorator, or an exhibit in the Hall of Fame! A true classic.
