Lot # 1521: 1956 World Series Game 5 Don Larsen Perfect Game Program

Capture one of the greatest performances in World Series play, when you hammer home the winning bid for this 1956 World Series Game 5 program. Right up there with Babe Ruth's called shot in the 1932 World Series and Reggie Jackson's 3-homer game in the 1977 Fall Classic, this October 8, 1956 contest between the New York Yankees and the Brooklyn Dodgers, saw Yankees starter Don Larsen record the only perfect game in World Series history. The scoring grids for both teams are neatly recorded in this seventy-year-old program, right down to the last out Larsen needed to sign off on his masterpiece. This vintage gameday souvenir shows Ex details, with deference to a 1" triangle of surface loss at the top-left corner of the back cover.
