The 2006 St. Louis Cardinals concluded their first season in new Busch Stadium in grand fashion wrapping up their 10th World Series title on their home turf with a 4-2 victory over the Tigers in front of a raucous crowd. The jubilation and exchanged tributes endured throughout the winter and spring culminating with the presentation of World Series rings to the players selected executives and elite Cardinals dignitaries.
The perimeter of this stunningly opulent award features the declaration "St. Louis CardinalsWorld Champions." The traditional Cardinals franchise logo is gloriously rendered in a sea of precious stones. More precisely the interlocking "St. L" is expressed by 36 rubies surrounded by more than 40 diamonds. The left shank identifies the rings original recipient by his full name OZZIE SMITH along with an impressive image of the new Busch Stadium and the Wizards former uniform number 1. In equally sharp relief the right shank proclaims "2006" a Cardinal logo and celebration of the teams "Tenth World Series Title." Crafted by Intergold Limited (of Calgary) the base material of the ring is 14K gold stamped as such in the band. The size 11 1/4 ring remains in perfect original condition as issued in its custom presentation box.
LOA from Ozzie Smith.
