Maris set the MLB record for home runs during the 1961 season with 61, breaking Babe Ruth's single-season record of 60 home runs in 1927. This record was challenged by then baseball commissioner Ford Frick, who said that Maris needed to break the record in 154 games instead of the current schedule of 162 games. His accomplishment of 61 home runs in a season came back to the forefront in 1998, when the home run record was broken by Mark McGwire and later that same year by Sammy Sosa.

Offered is a 7” x 9” photocopied page from a book signed by Maris in black sharpie pen with a mailing fold in the center of the page.

Letter of Authenticity from Richard Albersheim.

Roger Maris signed 7x9 Photo Hitting HR 61
