Featured here is a crystal award trophy commemorating one of baseball's greatest moments: Don Larsen's World Series perfect game on October 8, 1956. It remains the only perfect game in postseason history, and the clutch performance in a pivotal Game 5 at Old Yankee Stadium broke a 2-2 series tie with the Brooklyn Dodgers. The Yanks won the Fall Classic in seven games, and Larsen was named MVP.To honor Larsen for this incredible feat and his remarkable career in pinstripes, the Yankees held a special 50th-anniversary celebration of the perfect game on June 24, 2006—Old Timers Day at old Yankee Stadium.The Crystal Award trophy includes a lovely display stand holding a softball-sized baseball. The crystal stand is etched beautifully with "50th Anniversary – Don Larsen – WSPG – October 8, 1956." The sweet spot of the crystal ball is engraved "Don Larsen – WSPG 10-8-56" with the "DLPC 40/50" for the limited edition number—an elegant piece for any home or office display. The crystal trophy is solidly constructed, weighs 6.5 pounds, and is packaged in two boxes.
