This WELCOME HOME DINNER to the BROOKLYN DODGERS WORLD CHAMPIONS, dated April 16th, 1956 has been signed by Baseball Hall Of Famers Jackie Robinson, Roy Campanella, Don Drysdale, Pee Wee Reese and Dodger stars Don Zimmer, Roger Craig, Gil Hodges, Ransom Jackson, Charlie Neal, Carl Furillo, Carl Erskine, Clem Labine, Happy Felton, James Kelly and Don Newcombe. 16 signatures in all on this dinner program which includes vintage signatures from the playing days of the 1955 Brooklyn Dodgers World Champions. In 1955, the Brooklyn Dodgers finally fulfilled the promise of many previous Dodger teams. Although the club had won several pennants in the past, and had won as many as 105 games in 1953, it had never won a World Series. This team finished 13.5 games ahead in the National League pennant race, leading the league in both runs scored and fewest runs allowed. In the 1955 World Series, they finally beat their crosstown rivals, the New York Yankees. It was the Dodgers first and only World Series championship won while located in Brooklyn. PSA/DNA LOA included.
