Perhaps the most famous of all World Series games, Game 5 of the 1956 World Series featured the only perfect game in the history of the Fall Classic, served up by the Yankees' Don Larsen. Often lost in the memories of that day is the game pitched by Brooklyn's Sal Maglie, a five-hit complete game with very few mistakes, one being a two-out solo shot in the 4th inning by Mickey Mantle that would provide the Yankees with all the runs they would need.
Attractive ticket stub has been graded GOOD 2 (MK) by PSA, the qualifier related to a slight ink marking on the reverse. The technical grade relates primarily to surface soiling and light wear at the edges, otherwise a very attractive ticket stub from one of the Fall Classic's most important games.
