The New York Yankees’ fourth of their unparalleled five straight Fall Classic titles came in a seven-game thriller over the Brooklyn Dodgers as young outfielder Mickey Mantle launched his first World Series home run for the winners. Presented here is an engraved 1952 New York Yankees World Champions pocket watch that was awarded to Parke Carroll a longtime member of the Yankees’ minor league franchises.
This presentation timepiece by Wittnauer measures 1-3/8" diameter and is engraved "WORLD CHAMPIONS / P.C." around an attractive raised New York Yankees logo. In near-mint condition the watch appears fully operable. As the story goes when the Yankees won the 1952 World Series Parke Carroll was a front office executive with the Kansas City Blues a Yankee farm team and was given the commemorative silver pocket watch by Yankee ownership. Parke later died in 1961.
