1955 NEW YORK YANKEES TOUR OF JAPAN PROGRAM- MANTLE COVER

This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 8/22/2009

We believe this program is from the N.Y. Yankees Tour of Japan from either 1954 or 1955. For many years, Major League Baseball teams or All-Star teams would periodically visit japan to promote the game. This program is from a yankees visit and features an amazing front cover with a young Mickey Mantle. The program itself is mainly in Japanese, but there are loads of pictures of Yankee players within. The program has been punched with holes on the right hand border to put in a binder, but it still displays nicely. This is a "toughie".
