Outstanding pair of first generation photos of the 1941 World Champion and 1942 American League Champion New York Yankees. Both teams won over 100 games to capture the American League Pennant with the 1941 team beating their National League rivals the Brooklyn Dodgers in the World Series. Both teams were loaded with members of the Hall of Fame -Joe DiMaggio, Phil Rizzuto, Bill Dickey, Lefty Gomez, Red Ruffing, Joe McCarthy, and Joe Gordon. The 1941 photo carries the "COSMO-SILEO NEW YORK CITY" identification on front. Both feature exceptional clarity of player images and are blank on the back. The 1941 photo is very clean with just a small amount of wear to the corners. The 1942 has a little more wear with a couple of small very light colored ink? stains on the bottom and left white border.
