Bill Mazeroski's Game 7 home run for the Pirates defeated the heavily favored Yankees and in the process created one of the most memorable moments for fans in both cities. The ring represents that moment and the third championship for the Pirates, the first since 1925. Issued to the Pittsburgh Press Sports writer and one time Baseball Writers Association President Les Biederman. Les also worked closely with the Pirates and is in the World Series Program. The ring itself features Forbes Field with a diamond inset approximately .75 carat and surrounded by "Pittsburgh World Champions". The one shank has Biederman's name at the top with the Pirates P logo and "BB Writer" at the bottom. The opposite side has "Pirates" at the top in a banner, a pirate and a 1960 in a small banner at the bottom. This Jostens ring is size 10-1/2 and is 14K, weighing 29 grams. There is light wear from use but appears in excellent to near mint condition. Recent sales of other 1960 Pirate's rings include Dick Schoefields ring for $48,000 and Roberto Clemente's for $352,500. Condition: (Excellent-Near Mint).
