This elegant Cartier sterling silver box was presented to George Sisler Jr. a longtime minor league executive and former president of the International League as well as serving as general manager of the Columbus Clippers - the top Yankees affiliate for 28 years from 1979-2006. The 7 1/2-by-5-inch box features a pristine wood interior; a gold-painted sculpted Yankees cap 6-inch bat and silver baseball are affixed to the top of the box directly above engraving that reads: "To George Sisler Jr. In recognition of over 50 years of service to professional baseball the New York Yankees November 28 1989." All elements are in superb seemingly as-issued condition with the box showing only the kind of tarnishing that you anticipate from sterling silver over the span of several decades. Comes with a Letter of Authenticity from the Sisler Family.
