Led by new manager Casey Stengel, the Yankees kicked off a run of five straight championships in 1949 by beating out the Red Sox on the last day of the season on a dramatic Tommy Henrich homer, then defeating the Brooklyn Dodgers in a 5-game World Series. This 13" x 21-1/2" framed, excellent condition group shot of "baseball's fightingest team" as it says under the players, lets one to look into the eyes of Joe DiMaggio, Allie Reynolds, Yogi Berra & company and has an array of facsimile signatures at the bottom.
