This large and extraordinarily historic piece is one of the original terra-cotta decorative displays featured directly above the main entrance to the original Yankees Stadium. Along with the famous white façade, this piece, often referred to as a “cornerstone,” is one of the defining architectural elements of the original Yankee Stadium, which greeted every player and the millions of fans who came to the hallowed grounds from the day of its grand opening in 1923 until it was carefully taken down during the renovations in 1973.
