Lot 234: Piece of the Foul Pole From Shea Stadium
ITEM DESCRIPTION
|
||||||||||||
An orange-flavored, steel and metal relic from the old stadium in Queens, New York, where we met the Mets in ’64, and repeatedly thereafter for a couple generations, and where we saw miracles occur in October and pennants won in nearly every decade. This remnant is from a foul pole in that Flushing Meadow-Corona Park stadium - a structure that, for any fan of the game, was the source of many a bated breath and eagle eye of anticipation, or dread. Piece is 16x7”, and certainly amazing.
