Item Description
2.5", no maker, with tin covered back. Made for 1947 World Series, design mate to next button. The 1947 Brooklyn Dodgers were winners of the National League pennant with a record of 94-60 under manager Burt Shotton. The offense was led by a quartet of future National Baseball Hall of Famers: rookie Jackie Robinson (1B), Pee Wee Reese (SS), Arky Vaughan (UT) and rookie Duke Snider (OF). The Dodgers would go on to lose a tough seven game World Series to the mighty New York Yankees. Some silver flashing disappeared over the years and there is a very small 3/16" cello split along the metal back at 1 o'clock. Front cello in reflected light has small .5 x.75" area with air marks at far left. Still clean, glossy and VF. Paul Muchinsky Collection Book Example.
