1923 Photograph showing Casey Stengel of the Giants sliding home with a home run during the first game of the World Series against the Yankees. The game was the first ever World Series at Yankee Stadium and Stengels homer as a result was the first ever hit at the stadium during the fall classic. While we have seen images of Stengel referencing this important event, this is the only actual photograph of Stengel hitting his important bomb we have ever seen in any form! Issued by the International News and stamped on the back with a long paper caption as well.
