1927 World Champion Yankees Memorabilia with Plate Signatures Framed.
One of the most decorated teams in sports history, this collage showcases the Baseball Cards of the 1927 World Champion Yankees including the likes of Hall of Famers such as Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig.
The 1927 Yankees seem to be the default starting point for any conversation regarding baseball’s best-ever teams, but not without intense discussion. Serious debaters would point to the Pittsburgh Pirates of 1903 or 1909, both with higher winning percentages. Or Cincinnati’s Big Red Machine of 1975-76. Or the colourful New York Mets of 1986. Tougher arguments could be made for the 1906 Chicago Cubs (116-36) or the 1954 Cleveland Indians (111-43) both of whom had superior records, yet lost in the World Series.
Even fans of the Bronx Bombers debate whether the 1927 edition is the best Yankee team ever. They often point to the powerful 1961 club led by Roger Maris and Mickey Mantle, the multi-talented 1998 squad, or the collective Yankee dominance of the late 1930s.
Most experts didn’t even believe the Yankees were the best team in the American League when the 1927 season opened for business. A good majority of them put their money behind the Philadelphia Athletics a team patiently rebuilt by Connie Mack and which featured seven future Hall of Famers.
