A ticket from the championship-clinching final game of Joe DiMaggio’s legendary career.

Why This Ticket Matters

On October 10, 1951, the New York Yankees defeated the New York Giants 4–3 in Game 6 at Yankee Stadium to win their third consecutive World Series.

The game became Joe DiMaggio’s final major-league appearance. It also completed the first championship season for rookie Mickey Mantle and closed a World Series that featured DiMaggio, Mantle and Giants rookie Willie Mays.

This ticket represents both a Yankees championship and a generational transition—from DiMaggio’s final game to the beginning of the Mantle era.
