The first issue of Sports Illustrated was release on August 16, 1954. Over the past 55 years, the New York Yankees have had the most covers by any sports team, with a total of 74.
There were two All-Star Game issues that I didn’t include in the collage below, because it wasn’t solely Yankees related. If you care to see them: July 07, 1958 | Volume 9, Issue 1 & July 09, 1956 | Volume 5, Issue 2
I searched through the SI Vault and dug up every issue of the magazine with a Yankee related cover. I hope you like it.

Hate to do this, but I have to post this on BBD. It’s too cool. Obviously I’ll link back here. Awesome post man. This is up there with that time you ran pictures of celebrities wearing Yankee hats. That was also very cool.
I’m glad you like it. Thanks for the link. I have more celebrity pictures…not posting them yet though. haha

Those photos are worth a thousand words; Yankee tradition all wrapped up in one neat package! Real cool!!
Great job, Kevin. I sure do remember a lot of those covers. SI is one of my favorite magazines.
Cover with Derek and Alex is very interesting. Seems like yesterday they were just starting out. Time flies.
rozell u should make this into a bad ass poster. i would buy it =)
I would to, but I don’t know how. haha.
Is anyone going to fact check Kevin and make sure he didn’t miss any? I’m not volunteering, but how do we KNOW this is every single cover without just taking his word for it?
I kid, I kid. This is awesome.
Very cool, thanks! Are there links to larger pics?
wow, this is awesome! i’d buy a poster version too!
This is a great piece of work !!
I would love to buy a poster size copy.
Do you have any plans to do this ?
Please respond to this request !
I just made this thing for fun on photoshop. I would love a poster of this..but I don’t have any idea how to go about it or get it done.
