Old Yankee Wall

[yanks12025]

Hello,
Thought you guys would enjoy this piece, thats why i made it's own thread(too big for the pick up thread). Entering the ring is a piece of old Yankee Stadium padding, comes in at 9 feet tall and 3 feet wide. This thing is huge. The mlb hologram only lists it as being a Yankee Stadium wall pad, but it has to be from the outfield, i can't see this thing being put in the inside batting cage. And it has the wood bottom like the outfield had. Was wondering what you guys thought.

Re: Old Yankee Wall

That's great! Congratulations. I think people who have gotten artifacts from the old Yankee Stadium are going to be glad they have them in the coming years.

Zooat,
Mine also came on an 18 wheeler. Do you know how big yours is. Also I have no idea where I'm putting it, my ceilings are only 7 1/2 tall. So I think I'm going to mount it sideways on the wall.

- I asked the trucking company when they called to schedule the delivery and all she told me was that it weighs 100lbs, which according to her is "not that big"?!?...she also said that many buyers have not had the walls shipped because some pieces are way to big....

- Does your's have hooks on the back? or anything?

Re: Old Yankee Wall

Well with my other pad it said 100 pounds but turned out to be only 5-10 pounds. Mine does not have hooks but has holes on the back. The bottom piece of wood also has dirt/clay, so that's why I think it was one of the outfield pads. But looking in photos I noticed it's smaller dealing with width and don't know why there's Velcro. Any know where this could have been placed, I'm thinking right field by foul pole.

- Ah-ha! Interesting on the weight issue! So I guess I'll see what I get tommorrow...it looks like the wall may have come from down on the foul lines, not neccessarly the outfield wall itself...

- Where is your other piece of wall form? outfield? batting cage?...and do you have any pics?

Re: Old Yankee Wall

and yanks 12025,

was the smaller wall shipped on a truck as well? or did it come UPS?

Re: Old Yankee Wall

Here is my other piece, bought it in their first auction. Mlb says it was used for the ceiling pad of the yankee dugout, this piece also came on an 18 wheeler. Also if anyone finds a photo of the outfield door in right field(not bullpen door), please let me know. I believe this is where my big one came from. Thanks

Re: Old Yankee Wall

this is how I keep my outfield YS wall is displayed...way too tall to stand up unfortunately.

Re: Old Yankee Wall

Mattingly,
Nice set up, does the mlb hologram list where its from or just say Outfield Wall, because i know some say indoor batting cage,etc. Aslo whats the size of it. I'll post a photo of where i put mine in the end.

Zooat,
When you get yours if you can post some pics.

Mattingly, have seen your stuff before and you have such a great collection from RYS, I would pay to see it!

Do you know the baseballfever forum? There is a thread about RYS demolition and I'm sure guys would love to see the stuff you have!
