“The House the Ruth Built� opened for business in 1923. After sharing the Polo Grounds with the Giants- the Yankees were evicted by Giants Manager- John McGraw for many reasons- but none more so than the popularity of its team and its star player- Babe Ruth. The Yankees were out drawing their landlords- and the Giants had had enough. The Yankees built their own stadium in the South Bronx- right across the Harlem River from the Polo Grounds- in part so their former landlords could see their majestic new baseball palace every day they reported to work. Yankee Stadium has become a shrine for baseball fans- and has seen some of the greatest players and teams ever. Based on an original painting by Al Sorenson. Comes beautifully framed and matted.
