Description: This historical and original 10x8 wire photo was issued on July 17 1947 by International News Photos on the day the New York Yankees set a MLB record by winning their 19th straight game. The 19 straight wins is a Yankee team record that exists to this very day. This was the actual photo used by the Record-American to produce the photo for its article (attached to the reverse). The photo shows the heroes of the landmark win (Vic Rashi, manager Bucky Harris and "Bobo Newsom) celebrating by holding up jersey # 19 to let the world know of the team's feat. This photo was obtained in a Henry Yee auction and a portion of his descriptive information has been used above. This item will be shipped USPS First Class and a tracking number will be provided. PLEASE READ BEFORE BIDDING/BUYING. I am in the process of selling many items from various collections acquired over a 50-year period. The collections include sports cards, autographs, photos, western (cowboy) stars' photos & autographs, comic books (westerns mainly) and other classes of items. Some items are scarce, with some others likely being one of a kind. Sports items are centered on the Red Sox (particularly Ted Williams) and Boston Celtics (particularly the 1956-57 Celtics team through the early 1960's teams). Although I'm relatively new to selling on EBAY, I have purchased on EBAY for several years. I've had 100% approval ratings for nearly 600 purchases. When purchasing, I have been treated very well by EBAY sellers. Now that I am selling, I intend to treat my buyers in the same fashion. For some auction items I will give my opinion as to condition. Realizing that my amateur assessment as to condition might differ from that of the bidder/buyer, I encourage all bidders to look the photos and descriptions over closely. Ask questions if you need additional information on an item. I will be limiting shipments to the 50 U.S states. This policy helps keep transactions as simple as possible on my end.
