The summer of 1961 – there’s never been another season like it! Chronicled brilliantly in the HBO film 61*, it was so much more than just another year of New York Yankees dominance. While the Bronx Bombers were in the midst of yet another World Series run, the sub-plot almost overshadowed the that main storyline. It was the two men seen in this classic image – Roger Maris and Mickey Mantle – that starred in one of the most remarkable dramas in baseball history.

A SportsPosterWarehouse.com exclusive, this beautiful black-and-white print features the all-time classic photograph of New York’s M&M boys, the Odd Couple of Yankees roommates who together chased Babe Ruth’s Home Run record down to the final day of the season. Printed from the original negative, and authorized with an official MLB Authentic serialized hologram, it gives you the brash, confident, muscular Mickey, and the quiet, nervous, and ultimately victorious Maris, in a perfect pre-game pose at venerable Yankee Stadium. A true vintage classic, and a must for the wall of any true baseball history buff!
