Yankee stadium museum gu items (WARNING large pics)
On my most recent trip to the stadium I had my camera handy and figured I would go take some shots during the game when the museum is a ghost town. I figured most here may enjoy to see some of this amazing stuff they have on display.

Thanks, you took some really nice pictures. Wonder where the Yankees got some of the things on display. Were the bats simply kept by the team or were they purchased or given as gifts. The Ruth bats appear to have have come from a private source.

Re: Yankee stadium museum gu items (WARNING large pics)
Most are private on loan from various sources. What I really like is that the 3 times I been there at the museum the pieces have been different for the most part. I am not sure if its luck or a very well taken care of display, cause each time I have seen some great new things. And the amazing part is its probably the only free thing at the stadium heh

some nice historical pieces can probably be found in Steiner's warehouse.

I like that it is a New York baseball museum and not just a Yankee museum.

Thanks for taking the pictures! What's the theme of the signed baseballs in the last picture?

I noticed that the display label for the Ruth bat said on loan from Dr. Richard Angrist. He has one of the two best collection of game used bats and has the most stringent criteria for adding a bat to his collection. He has his own chapter in the book Smithsonian Baseball.
