It's October 2, 1953, Yankee Stadium, Yankees vs. Dodgers. Rizzuto is at the plate and hits a liner right down to Gilliam who bobbles the ball. Reese grabs it but there's no time for the play. Rizzuto is safe at first and Billy Martin has arrived at second without fear of the tag out. The beautiful image tells the whole story and if that was not enough the original caption is mounted right next to it. Below that is a perfect 10 signature of Martin executed in blue ink. The photo, caption, and signature have been double matted and framed to an overall size of 16" x 20". The autograph comes with a letter from PSA/DNA.
