Editorial Reviews

Braves series hero Lou Burdette's three complete game victories bring Milwaukee its first World Title as the Braves defeat the favored Yanks 4 games to 3. Some of the greatest players in baseball history compete in the series, including the Braves Warren Spahn, Hank Aaron and Eddie Mathews, as well as New York stars Whitey Ford, Yogi Berra, Mickey Mantle, etc. Highlights include the Braves dramatic comeback victory in Game 4 that turned the tide of the series. Helped by the Nippy Jones "Shoe Polish" incident, the Braves come from behind to win after trailing in extra innings! A special World Series preview has been added to the original film, showing closeups of Yankee and Brave players, and giving tips on what to look for in the upcoming series. This last World Series filmed in B & W runs 48 minutes total. Narrated by Lew Fonseca.
