The first time in history that the Fall Classic would be contested outside the borders of the United States, the 1992 World Series featured Canada’s sweetheart in the form of the Toronto Blue Jays defeating a strong Atlanta Braves club in six games, with this their first of two consecutive championships. Originally purchased at the “Grandravine Special Program Auction” in 1996, we have a pitching rubber (mound) used at the SkyDome/Rogers Centre during the 1992 World Series (Games 3, 4 and 5 were played at SkyDome). Acquired for the original charity auction through an association with Jays catcher Pat Borders according to our consignor, the approx 24” x 6” x 6” rubber was produced by Jack Corbett Hollywood Bases (the original Jack Corbett box is included) with “Pitcher’s Rubber” embossed. Heavy use is shown with considerable staining and surface wear throughout including to the rubber along a few edges, with the inner circular tube cracked at one side. The original Grandravine auction sheet which lists this item will accompany.
Grandravine Special Hockey is a hockey program for the developmentally challenged for all ages, male or female, regardless of skill level. It is the oldest special hockey program in North America, founded in 1980.
