Description: 1923 New York Yankees vs. New York Giants World Series program and Game 1 ticket stub. Program is scored in light pencil with all pages complete and intact, though the centerfold has detached at the staples. Shows moderate soiling and general wear with the cover having a 1ö split at the bottom of the spine. The accompanying ticket stub, issued for the first ever World Series game played at Yankee Stadium, shows multiple creases on the front, with the surface of the back having been ôskinnedö as a result of album removal. The term home field advantage took on a whole new meaning in 1923 as baseball's grand cathedral, Yankee Stadium, opened to the dismay of the Giants. "The House That Ruth Built" towered over their yard (The Polo Grounds) and featured an enormous seating capacity with an architectural beauty that was second to none. Program: VG. Stub: FR-GD
