  4. About the Trophy

Schedule is subject to change.
Specific locations and times to be announced in January.
Viewing is on a FIRST COME, FIRST-SERVED BASIS. We will do our best to accommodate all those wishing to view the trophy. However, lines will be monitored and, if needed, cut off to keep the Trophy Tour on schedule.

There is no charge to attend the Trophy viewing. Fans do have the opportunity to have a professional photo taken with the trophy and can purchase those prints on-line.

Fans will be accommodated at each viewing on a first-come, first-served basis. An official photographer will take one photo of each fan with the trophy, and the additional use of personal cameras will be determined by the representatives accompanying the trophy based on the turnout of fans. However, while waiting in line for the official photo with the Trophy, fans can use their personal cameras up to a designated spot. The number-one priority of the Giants is to provide the opportunity for as many fans as possible to view the trophy during the scheduled time periods. We appreciate your understanding.

Major League Baseball World Series Trophy Fact Sheet



In 2000, Major League Baseball commissioned Tiffany & Co. to create one of the most celebrated awards in all of sports: the World Series Trophy. The Commissioner of Baseball presents this trophy to the winning team of the annual World Series. The goal of greatness is crafted into every detail of this revered trophy:

  • The initial World Series trophy was created by Major League Baseball in 1967. The St. Louis Cardinals, who defeated the Boston Red Sox in seven games in the World Series that year, were the first World Series Champions to receive the trophy.
  • Trophy's official name is "The Commissioner's Trophy." Each year, one full-sized trophy is crafted by Tiffany and awarded by the Commissioner of Baseball to the championship team.
  • The trophy is created at Tiffany's workshop in New Jersey.
  • Master artisans employ age-old techniques - spinning, silversmithing, chasing, hand engraving, and polishing - to create the trophy.
  • Design features thirty pennants representing the teams in the American and National Baseball Leagues. The pennants encircle a dome base, which is etched with latitude/longitude lines symbolizing the globe and adorned with twenty-four karat gold vermeil applied stitches representing those on a baseball. Engraved on the base are the words, "Presented by the Commissioner of Baseball" along with the commissioner's signature.
  • Sterling silver trophy weighs approximately 20 pounds and stands 24 inches high with a diameter of 11 inches.

Tiffany & Co. also creates the World Series MVP Trophy, presented to the Most Valuable Player of the World Series; the All-Star Home Run Derby Trophy, awarded by Major League Baseball to the winner of the Home Run Derby during All-Star Week; and the Commissioner's Historic Achievement Award which is awarded at the Commissioner's discretion. Previous winners include Cal Ripken Jr., Tony Gwynn, Roger Clemens, Ichiro Suzuki and Rachel Robinson.

Tiffany & Co. creates trophies for many of the world's greatest sporting events. These designs include the National Basketball Association Larry O'Brien Championship Trophy, the Vince Lombardi Trophy for the National Football League, and the U.S. Open Tennis Championship Trophies. Inspired by the transcendent form and energy of competition, these outstanding Tiffany designs are a lasting tribute to the athletes' dedication and the thrill of victory.
