Description
This is a 1959 program between the Los Angeles Dodgers and the St. Louis Cardinals, played at Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum.
The program is neatly scored and is from the Dodgers World Series Championship season.
The program is from the April 14, 1959 game, which was the Home Opener for the Los Angeles Dodgers. Attendance was 61,552. The Cardinals beat the Giants 6-2. The Cardinals were led by Hal Smith, who had 3 hits, including a 2-run home run. Ken Boyer and Don Blasingame had 2 hits each. Stan Musial was held hitless. Lindy McDaniel was the Cardinals starter and pitched a complete game for the Win. Bob Gibson is listed on the Cardinals roster, but did not appear in the game
.
The Dodgers were led by Gil Hodges, who had 2 hits, including a 2-run home run. Wally Moon had 3 hits, while Duke Snider and Don Zimmer had 1 hit each. Johnny Podres was the Giants starter and took the Loss. Sandy Koufax and Don Zimmer are listed on the Dodgers roster, but did not appear in the game.
The condition of this program is G-VG. The front cover has nice color, with light wear. There is a ding at the bottom left corner that runs throughout the program. There is a small corner crease at the lower right corner. The back cover is clean, with light wear. The spine is split at the bottom 1". Other than the scoring, the insides are clean
. However, the center page spread has separated from the program, and is split 4" at the center of the spread, heading down. The program is complete. I'm calling it G-VG, but p
lease check the scans for yourself.
The Los Angeles Dodgers finished the 1959 season 88-68, winning the NL Pennant, and beating the Chicago White Sox in the World Series. The Cardinals went 71-83, and finished in 7th place.
Don't miss out on the excellent piece of MLB history, a scored program from the Home Opener of the Los Angeles Dodgers World Series Championship season.
Payment
I would appreciate payment within three days of the end of the auction, but if additional time is needed, just let me know.
Shipping
Shipping and handling is .50. I will combine shipping for multiple purchases. If you win multiple items, please wait for me to provide you with an updated invoice reflecting your total purchases.
Why I don't offer "free" shipping.
We all know that there is no such thing as "free" shipping. The post office charges for every item they deliver. So the only way to offer "free" shipping is to build the shipping charge into the price of the item. However, often times people purchase multiple lots. By not building in the shipping charge into the price of each item, I am able to combine shipping charges, thereby saving you money. My shipping charges are very reasonable. With my safe and secure packaging, I often charge less than I spend on postage and packaging. I sincerely believe that by offering a low shipping charge along with combined shipping for multiple lots I am able to save you money in the long-run.
About Us
I am a collector just like you. I get frustrated with over-grading and people trying to profit from excessive shipping fees. I believe I am a conservative grader. I provide high quality scans and/or photos to give you the best view possible. I will disclose any defects to the best of my ability. However, if I happen to miss something, simply return the item within 30 days for a full refund, no questions asked.
God Bless our troops fighting overseas !!
