1925 St. Paul Baseball Club Stock Certificate - Issued to and Signed by Miller J. Huggins.
On January 1, 1925, the St. Paul Saints of the American Association had been sold to Bob Connery, longtime New York Yankees scout. This started a close relationship between the two teams which included a regular shuttle of players between the Saints and Yankees. What was not known at the time was that Yankees manager Miller Huggins was a part-owner of the Saints, as well. After Connery bought the Saints, his statements on his new club’s ownership and relationship with the Yankees were a mystery. He refused to name his partners; there were rumors he was one of three There was no formal or ownership connection between the two teams, however because of the Yankee-Saints connection, many Yankees players spent time in St. Paul including: George Halas, Lefty Gomez, and thirteen members of the 1927 Yankees: Mark Koenig, Bob Meusel, Walter Beall, Cedric Durst, Pat Collins, Joe Giard, Johnny Grabowski, Ray Morehart, Wilcy Moore, Ben Paschal, George Pipgras, Myles Thomas, Julie Wera. Extremely happy to finally add one of these to my collection. The stock certificate is for 33 shares of $100 each. That would be equivalent to $49k today.
