Uncovered what I believe are Yankee Stadium Seats...
Hello - found these recently in Brooklyn. The green initially had me thinking back to Fenway games as a kid, but while running down the auction history of Yankee seats through Legendary/Mastro over the years, it appears as though Yanks seats were originally green. Also found several auctions with an exact match on shape and structure. My guess is that these were decommissioned during the '73 reno on the stadium, treasured for a while, and eventually put in someone's backyard - hence the rotting of the top slat.
As a more than capable woodworker myself, I'd like to bring these beauties back. Replicating slats won't be a problem - I'm more concerned with painting. In your experience, would someone prefer the Yankee green or blue - if indeed these are Yankee seats? Personally I feel original paint is always best, but these are chipping quite a bit. Would hate to lose that No.27 on the side because of the significance (the '27 team, 27 series wins etc). - which can always be repainted. Any thoughts on these seats are greatly appreciated, as well as any insight on preferred renovation methods. A few Legendary examples, then my pics... http://legendaryauctions.com/LotDeta...entoryid=18323 http://legendaryauctions.com/LotDeta...entoryid=34355 http://legendaryauctions.com/LotDeta...entoryid=21943 |
