In addition to video of Roger’s feats, including video of
the famed No. 61 in 1961, the museum displays items from every year
and every aspect of Roger’s athletic career, from high school
to the pros; the displays will change semi-annually. Everything
is authentic. McLaughlin was meticulous about the museum. When a
Yankees uniform with the No. 9 arrived, McLaughlin recognized it
was not an authentic uniform of the heavy wool that players wore
in Maris’s day. He sent it back, and the Yankees replaced
it.
A moment in history.
