BID PER WHAT YOU SEE IN THE PHOTO, NOT THE AI GENERATED TITLES AND DESCRIPTIONS! A Collection of New York Yankees Photographic Memorabilia Featuring Autographed and Licensed Prints
This collection of New York Yankees photographic memorabilia consists of multiple prints of varying sizes, primarily 8×10 inches. The subjects represent a cross-section of franchise history, featuring prominent players such as Mickey Mantle, Yogi Berra, Lou Gehrig, Joe DiMaggio, Roger Maris, Whitey Ford, Billy Martin, Tony Kubek, Lefty Gomez, David Wells, Reggie Jackson, Bucky Dent, Graig Nettles, and Elston Howard. The collection includes several items with signatures and inscriptions. Notable examples include a Tony Kubek action photo inscribed Tony Kubek WORLD CHAMPIONS 1958 1961-1962 in blue ink, a Mickey Mantle portrait signed in blue ink, and a dual-signed photo of Mickey Mantle and Billy Martin. A photograph of Yogi Berra displaying his World Series rings is signed in white ink and bears a small circular blue authentication hologram on the lower right corner. Other signed items include a Joe DiMaggio print in a gold jacket, a David Wells celebratory jump photo, a Lefty Gomez pitching photo, and a Bucky Dent/Graig Nettles action shot. One Lou Gehrig portrait features a printed facsimile signature. The photographs are primarily modern reprints on a mix of glossy and matte photographic paper. Included among the images are candid shots, such as Mantle and Martin at the Hotel Edison, and significant moments like Mantle’s on-field speech.
