Clark Griffith Oversized 1940s-50s Photo Formerly Displayed in Yankee Stadium.
Lot 238. Clark Griffith Oversized 1940s-50s Photo Formerly Displayed in Yankee Stadium. Griffith was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 1946 as a pioneer and executive. As a major league pitcher from 1891-1914, he posted a 237-146 record. As a manager, he led the Chicago White Sox to the league championship in the first season of the American League. And as the owner of the Washington Senators, he was one of baseball’s major power brokers. His 39.25" x 61.25" photo, as manager of the Senators, was displayed at Yankee Stadium from the 1940s-50s until the early 1970s. On paper ¼” thick, it has water damage along the edges and in the corners. Except for his shoes, Griffith’s image is unaffected. Some basic restoration would make the photo a very desirable and collectible display item. Note: Depending on location, shipping for this item will be $100-$175. We offered it in a previous auction. The winning bid reneged and is banned from bidding with us.
Winning Bid $75.
