Recall the pinnacle of the New York Yankees success with this pair of graded Exhibit cards. The Yankees have enjoyed so many triumphant seasons that it's hard to say when they topped out. Of course the 1927 and 1961 teams are always brought up in any discussion of all-time great years, but the 1949-1953 teams cannot be overlooked. This squad of motivated achievers recorded a string of five consecutive World Series championships, a feat unmatched in the history of Major League Baseball. Two seasons from this truly incredible run are represented by this pair of PSA graded 1947-1966 Exhibit cards with 1951 Yankees Team (EX 5) and 1952 Yankees Team (VG-EX 4). Both cards are pleasing and if you look close enough, you'll find Mickey Mantle in his rookie and sophomore seasons, a nice consolation for those unable to procure his elusive rookie cards.
