Item Description
Bid today to be the proud owner of one of only six "Fenway Park 100 Years" coffee table books signed by 198 current and former Red Sox players, front office personnel, and VIPs, including fan favorites such as Carl Yastrzemski, Bobby Doerr, Carlton Fisk, Jim Rice, Dustin Pedroia, Jacoby Ellsbury and many more. (Full List Below)
Fenway Park 100 Years is the official, definitive history of America's Most Beloved Ballpark, published jointly by the Boston Red Sox and Major League Baseball. This high-quality coffee table book contains 256 lavishly illustrated pages, with 28-inch by 11-inch photo spreads. It weighs 7 pounds, made of high quality paper, and includes over 300 images, including never-before-seen photos and essays.
The book tells the behind-the-scenes story of Fenway Park's first century: 100 years of baseball highlights, other sports, entertainment and civic events, as well as the 21st century commitment by a group of new owners to save, preserve and improve the park for future generations. It features a foreword by best-selling author and New England native Stephen King, and tributes by over 30 Red Sox players and VIPs.
The winner of this auction will also receive a personalized thank you letter from Larry Lucchino, President & CEO of the Boston Red Sox.
All auction proceeds will go to the Red Sox Foundation, the official team charity of the Boston Red Sox, which supports select programs serving at risk children and families across New England. The Foundation's efforts are primarily focused on our cornerstone programs including the Red Sox Scholars Program, which provides tutoring, mentoring, enrichment programs and a college scholarship to academically talented but economically disadvantaged Boston public school students and the Red Sox Foundation's RBI and Rookie League youth baseball program serving more than 2,000 inner city teens each summer. The team charity also supports the new Red Sox Foundation and Massachusetts General Hospital Home Base Program for veterans returning from Iraq and Afghanistan with combat stress disorders and traumatic brain injury, The Dimock Center in Roxbury and The Jimmy Fund in support of Dana Farber Cancer Institute.
A 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, the Red Sox Foundation has won numerous awards for the impact of its innovative programs. In 2010, the Red Sox Scholars program was recognized by Major League Baseball with the first-ever "MLB Commissioner's Award for Philanthropic Excellence." In 2009, the Red Sox Foundation was also honored by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and the Sports Philanthropy Project with the Patterson Award as the nation's "Best Team Charity in Sports."
