Original September 26, 1961 photograph of Yankee star Roger Maris as he received a police escort back to the locker room after the game in which he belted his 60th home run was completed at Yankee Stadium. Maris was about to be mobbed by fans and reporters so the police took charge to protect their superstar. One of the first baseball 'paparazzi' style photographs we have ever seen, this is from the Associated Press and with a huge paper caption on the back. Photo comes with a full letter from PSA (Type 1) and is in great condition overall.
