Players in the 1953 All-Star Game found their cup runneth over when they received this gorgeous silver bowl as a keepsake. The carved inscription, "All Star Game, Cincinnati, July 14, 1953," is centered by a five-pointed star that still shines generations later. The surface is brilliant and the flared lip of the bowl remains flawless. The game, won by the National League, 5-1, was a homerless affair best remembered for an appearance by 47-year-old pitcher Satchel Paige. The one sparkling memory the players took home can now be yours. An heirloom imbued with star power belongs in your baseball collection.
