Given how often these pop up at various auctions throughout a year, I thought I would take a moment to briefly write about them here. Featured is a vintage set of 1952 Brooklyn Dodgers National League Champions china that includes a plate, cup and saucer. The exact set shown in the pic above is currently available at Hunt Auctions (Auction Link Here).
These were originally given to players, coaches, Dodgers employees and even the press in appreciation for the work done that past season. In 1952 the Dodgers won the pennant by 4.5 games over the Giants, but lost the World Series to the Yankees that Fall.
