Description
The 1922 World Series, which featured the New York Giants and the New York Yankees, was a notable event in baseball history, and a program from this series, especially from games held at the Polo Grounds, would be a valuable piece of sports memorabilia. The series was a rematch of the 1921 World Series and was significant for several reasons:
1. New York Rivalry: The series was a clash between two New York teams, intensifying the local rivalry. The Giants and the Yankees were two of the most prominent teams in baseball at the time.
2. Polo Grounds Venue: The Polo Grounds, known for its unique, bathtub-shaped design and deep center field, was the home field for both teams. This shared venue added a unique dimension to the series.
3. Giants' Victory: The New York Giants won the series, marking their second consecutive World Series title over the Yankees.
4. Baseball Legends: The series featured several legendary players, including Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig of the Yankees, and Frankie Frisch and Casey Stengel of the Giants.
5. Historical Era: The early 1920s were a transformative period in baseball history, marked by the rise of legendary players and significant changes in how the game was played and perceived.
A 1922 World Series program from the Polo Grounds would be particularly sought after by collectors for its rarity, historical significance, and connection to a legendary era in baseball. Its value would depend on its condition, any unique or distinguishing features (such as player autographs), and the current market demand for baseball memorabilia. For fans of baseball history, such an item would not only be a collector's piece but also a tangible link to a storied past in America's favorite pastime.
Original footnote: Original program issued for The Polo Grounds is unscored. Presents in VG condition with some mild scattered wear including some wrinkles and creases.
