Early and Fabulous 1950s Willie Mays Wire Photos (4)

Early and Fabulous 1950s Willie Mays Wire Photos (4)

The sheer joy of being Willie Mays is brought home by these 4 effervescent AP wire service photos from the earliest days when Willie patrolled centerfield at the Polo Grounds. Anything he did, it seemed, brought a flourish of excitement and smiles all around: 1) Clowning with Giant teammates Monte Irvin and Alvin Dark. 2) Willie Mays celebration at the Polo Grounds with some young hotties with signs reading "Say Hey! Willie is Our Boy!" and "Hip! Hip! Hooray for the Birmingham Belter Willie Mays." 3) Superb pose facing off with teammate Monte Irvin, the two Negro Leaguers. 4) Nice Giants team photo in interesting array of 8 players including Mays, Irvin and Dark. 7 x 9" photos are vintage with the AP stamp on reverse and overall EX-MT condition.
