The Polo Grounds became the center of the baseball world during the first half of October 1921 as the New York Giants and New York Yankees met for the first time at the Polo Grounds in New York a stadium that both shared. This would be the first of three consecutive Fall Classic battles. The Yankees would lose their first Series appearance 5 games to 3 but would go on to become the most celebrated team in baseball history. Front of small press pin features a ball with crossed bats and "1921" in gold on white enamel with "WORLD SERIES POLO GROUNDS NEW YORK PRESS" in gold on blue enamel surrounding. Back stamped "WHITEHEAD & HOAG NEWARK N.J". The original pin clasp is missing. Pin displays beautifully with great color and no loss to the white enamel. The blue enamel has a very tiny spot of loss at top that is barely noticeable. Great looking important pin in the History of the New York Yankees!
