Large 1961 statuesque batting photo of the Yankee legend Mickey Mantle as he watches one sail into the seats. His muscles bulging but his follow through caught in suspended animation forever, Mantle gazes proudly as yet another homer finds the seats! Taken from the height of his epic home run chase with Roger Maris, this comes directly from the photographer who took the image and gave it to a prominent New York Sports cartoonist to use in his artwork! An exciting new UNIQUE discovery that has never been offered before and is sure to be the centerpiece of even the most extensive Mantle collection! Condition and quality are both outstanding!
