New York 1939 World's Fair Cotton Baseball Jersey

INSPIRED BY THE JERSEY WORN BY BABE RUTH FOR THE 1939 WORLD’S FAIR

History: The 1939 World’s Fair was held in Queens, New York, in what is now Flushing Meadows Corona Park. Titled “The World of Tomorrow,” the exhibition was built around imagining a brighter future, and saw over 45 million visitors over its two-year existence. Yankees slugger Babe Ruth, whose legacy had only grown since his retirement in ‘35, helped promote the event by appearing in parades and offering batting lessons to kids at the fair’s “Academy of Sport.” During many of these events, he wore a custom-made New York jersey featuring the 1939 World Fair logo on the sleeve and their orange-and-blue color scheme in the lettering.

This jersey stays true to the design of the one worn by the Bambino himself, with ‘New York’ on the front, his iconic #3 on the back, the ‘39 World’s Fair logo on the left sleeve.
