All three San Francisco Giants World Series trophies since the 2010 season will be on display at the Richmond Civic Center on Feb. 4.
The Giants are taking the trophies on a tour through California and other western states to offer fans a chance to see them in person and snap a photo, according to team officials.
The public can stop by 403 Civic Center Plaza from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. on Feb. 4 to see the trophies for free. Small donations are recommended, however, as they will benefit the Junior Giants program serving boys and girls from low-income families in California and Oregon.
It will be the Giants’ third trophy tour in four years and will feature trophies from the 2014, 2012 and 2010 seasons. Since 2000, Tiffany & Co. has crafted the trophies at its New Jersey workshop. The company’s master artisans “employ age-old techniques – spinning, silversmithing, chasing, hand engraving and polishing” on each trophy, according to Major League Baseball.

San Mateo: Elks Lodge, 229 West 20th Avenue, February 2, 4 p.m. – 6 p.m.
San Jose: Municipal Stadium, February 3, 4 p.m. – 6 p.m.
