1919 Elmer Miller Yankees contract
5 Attachment(s)
Got my winning from Clean Sweep today and nothing short of amazing. For those of you who are not aware of Elmer Miller, he was my great great uncle who played for the Yankees in the teens and early 20’s. He was a team mate if Babe Ruth and played center field in the 1921 World Series. He is literally the first Yankee to get a hit in a World Series and Scored the first run in a Yankees World Series. I of course had to touch the signature as my distant relative had touched there. Would love to know where the contract has been and history of it’s travels.

Very intersting, man. Always cool to hear about some family history! Have you been looking for something of his or did you just stumble upon this?

Congratulations on the pickup. It looks like a real beauty. Is that Jacob Ruppert's signature?
