Historical Hockey and Sports Memorabilia Auction September 2023
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 9/19/2023
The 93rd edition of the World Series, the 1997 Fall Classic featured the underdog Florida Marlins taking on the Cleveland Indians. Going the full distance, Game 7 was decided in extra innings on a walk-off single hit by Édgar Rentería. This would be the first Marlins World Series victory. We have series MVP Livan Hernandez's World Series trophy. As another trophy from Hernandez was sold previously at auction, this example could possibly be an extra ordered for a family member or a friend. Produced by Balfour and featuring a 7” circular base with mounted ball and crown motif, 28 gold-coloured flag pins encompass, one for each MLB club, with enamel Indians and Marlin pins added to the foreground. A gold band circles the base, with “World Series Champions”, "Florida Marlins", “1997” and “Livan Hernandez - MVP” all engraved. Exhibiting surface wear to the gold band encircling the base, the rest of the trophy sports just light handling wear, and displays beautifully overall.
