Led by Joe DiMaggio and Lou Gehrig, the 1937 New York Yankees were an unstoppable force on their way to yet another World Series title. DiMaggio was the undeniable star of this team, putting up a mystifying Triple Crown slash line of .346/46/167 with 35 doubles and 15 triples. Gehrig, despite his advancing age, put forth a .351/37/158 to complement Bill Dickey’s 29 homers, 133 RBI, and .332 batting average. The Yankees easily won 102 games in the regular season before defeating the New York Giants in a five-game World Series. This photograph is a team photograph of the 1937 Yankees, with each player dressed in the Yankees home whites. Numerous Hall of Famers are photographed here, including DiMaggio, Gehrig, Dickey, Red Ruffing, Tony Lazzeri, Joe McCarthy, and Lefty Gomez. Each player or staff member’s surname is written in black pen on their photograph. The photograph measures 13 x 10 inches and comes in a 20.5 x 17.5-inch frame. This is a terrific display piece for any Yankee fan!
