The House that Ruth Built, as it was built! This fascinating poster, a Sportsposterwarehouse.com exclusive, displays a remarkable set of photographs taken periodically throughout the construction of baseball's most legendary park, Yankee Stadium in The Bronx. It's all here, from a pre-construction look at the plot of land circa 1921, through the early phases of readying the foundation, to the rising grandstands growing from the ground with the help of early construction cranes, to the snow-covered site during the winter of 1923, to the finishing touches in March, and finally to Opening Day, April 18, 1923, when the Babe's three-run homer led the Yankees to an easy 4-1 win over - you guessed it - the Boston Red Sox. This poster is perfect for the wall of any Yankees fan, every ballpark aficionado, and especially for managers of engineering and construction firms - after all, the Yankee Stadium project was completed by Osborne Engineering Company of Cleveland, and White Construction Company of New York, on-budget and on-time in less than one year! Note: this poster is now out-of-print; limited quantity remains in our warehouse.
