Pinstripe Perfection
MAB Celebrity Services will finish the month with its traditional Yankees autograph show on January 25th & 26th at the Hilton Hasbrouck Heights-Meadowlands. This year’s theme is celebrating the 15th anniversary of David Cone‘s perfect game and the 1999 World Series championship team.
