(LOT 510)
1951 World Series Game 3 FULL NYG-6,NYY-2/ Mays 1st WS H/RBI Proof Not Valid For Admission PSA 4 VG-EX

This PSA VG-EX 4 is a POP 1! The 1951 World Series matched the two-time defending champion New York Yankees against the New York Giants, who had won the National League pennant in a thrilling three-game playoff with the Brooklyn Dodgers on the legendary home run by Bobby Thomson (the Shot Heard 'Round the World). In the Series, the Yankees showed some power of their own, including Gil McDougald's grand slam home run in Game 5, at the Polo Grounds.

The Yankees won the Series in six games, for their third straight title and 14th overall. What makes this ticket very exciting I that this would be the last World Series for Joe DiMaggio, who retired afterward, and the first for rookies Willie Mays and Mickey Mantle. Extremely rare! POP 1 with not one ticket grading higher.
