What is the value of a 1974 New York Yankees yearbook?
From the 56 years span between 1950-2006 there are 119 different New York Yankees yearbooks. There are 85 different just in the 27 year period from 1956-1982, and there are three or more different for virtually every year in that 27 year stretch including five different from one year. Different publication include Jay publishing Co., official Yankees first editions, 2nd editions, 3rd editions, and revised editions.
A 1974 New York Yankees yearbook with Bobby Murcer -Thurman Munson artwork on the cover is worth between $15.00 - $25.00Value is based on average prices from recently closed auctions of publications in excellent condition. Issues in mint condition or in less than excellent condition will sell higher or lower accordingly.
Common flaws include: rips, creases, staining, and loose pages. Condition is important, and even minor flaws could devalue the yearbook significantly.
There are three editions for the 1974 yearbook, and all three feature a 7" 33 1/3 LP on the 50th Anniversary of Yankee Stadium. The first edition roster page (36) dated April 1, the second edition dated May, 12, no indication on the cover that it is the second edition revised on top of the first page, and third edition dated August 1, no indication on the cover that it is the third edition revised on top of the first page.
First editions in the case of yearbooks normally sell for less because they are sold throughout most of the year, and more are available. The added editions are printed at the end of the season, and are more rare. The second & third edition for the 1974 Yankee yearbook sell for about $5.-$10 more than the first. I have included a link below to a New York Yankees yearbook check list, and price guide.
Because most major league teams, minor league, college and high school teams are on the first base side if they are the home team!! Some teams are on the third base side due to maybe superstition.. that being the Cubs are on the first base line due to tradition.

What was Derek Jeter's first jersey number as a professional?
There are two numbers you could reasonably say were Derek Jeter's first "professional" number.
The first time Jeter technically became a professional was in 1992, when the New York Yankees picked him sixth overall in the draft. Like most new players, however, he did not go directly to the major leagues; the Yankees first placed him in their minor league system. It's hard to determine the first jersey number he wore in the minors, since far less attention is payed to the minor leagues than the majors. Fortunately, there were several collectible "rookie edition" baseball cards made of Jeter; from pictures of these, it would be a reasonably good guess to say that Jeter's first minor league number was "13". A link to a picture of one of these cards is included in the related links.
Jeter's first major league number is much easier to find; he's used the same one for his entire major league career. Jeter's first major league number was "2".
