Features from the Archives

A Rotating Temporary ExhibitJanuary through March 2024

In January and February we'll be featuring items from our archives that have never before been on display to the public.

Currently on view, the folding chair George Steinbrenner sat in when he came to the Museum in 1998 to apologize to Yogi in person, ending the legendary 14-year feud between the two men. George autographed the chair afterwards.

Also on display: an original lane section from the beloved Yankee hang-out, Rizzuto-Berra Lanes. When Phil Rizzuto and Yogi opened their bowling alley in 1958, it immediately became a popular destination for their fellow players and local fans alike.
