Description
This piece was taken of the 1955 World Series Poster of the Brooklyn Dodgers vs. the New York Yankees. The game was on September 28, 1955 at 1:30 PM.
The 1955 World Series matched the Brooklyn Dodgers against the New York Yankees, with the Dodgers winning the Series in seven games to capture their first championship in franchise history. It would be the only Series the Dodgers won in Brooklyn (the team relocated to Los Angeles after the 1957 season), as well as the last World Series win by a National League team based in New York City until the New York Mets did it in 1969.
This was the fifth time in nine years that the Yankees and the Dodgers met in the World Series, with the Yankees having won in 1947, 1949, 1952, and 1953; the Yankees would also win in the 1956 rematch.
This Series also marked the end of a long period of invulnerability for the Yankees in World Series. It was the Yankees' first loss in a World Series since 1942 and only their second since 1926. While the Yankees were 152 in Series appearances during that time, they would lose again in 1957, 1960, 1963, and 1964, for a record of 45 in World Series over the next decade. Quote From Wikipedia
