1938 World Series — Yankees vs Cubs — Shirley Povich Wrigley Field Press Pass — PSA 1.5

A working press credential from the opening two games of the 1938 World Series at Chicago's Wrigley Field, bearing the handwritten name Shirley Povich and the affiliation Wash. Post. PSA identifies the piece as a 1938 World Series Chicago press pass valid for Games 1 and 2 and assigns a numerical grade of 1.5. The Yankees won both Chicago games before completing a four-game sweep for their third consecutive World Series championship. The Series was also the last of Lou Gehrig's career, while Game 2 featured Joe DiMaggio homering against Dizzy Dean. The credential's connection to Povich adds a compelling baseball-journalism dimension, although the visible PSA label does not separately authenticate his handwriting. This is a press pass rather than a conventional admission-ticket stub. PSA population and comparable completed sales have not been verified.
