When Yankee Stadium opening in 1923 it was the wonder of the baseball world. The year was full of "firsts" for the new shrine to the game, but none was bigger than the first World Series for the Yankees. Here we see the newly completed mega-structure as it looked from above shortly after its completion and before a single World Series had ever taken place there. Dated on the back from October 1923, this is an absolute gem of a stadium photograph issued by Underwood and Underwood with a bold stamp on the back. One of the top Yankee Stadium images to ever hit the market and this one grades nearly perfect!
