The 1953 World Series between four-time defending champs, the New York Yankees, and their most persistent rival, the Brooklyn Dodgers, was a rematch of the 1952 series, and the 50th edition of the World Series. Members of the press covering this epic event in baseball history needed one of these lapel pins to gain entry to see the likes of Mickey Mantle, Yogi Berra, Jackie Robinson and Duke Snider battling it out.
The Dodgers pin features their blue hat and is from Dieges & Glust – New York.
The Yankees pin was made by Balfour and features a threaded post.
Both pins are in NR-MT condition. Opening Bid $200.
