1951 Vintage action photograph of rookie Mickey Mantle (wearing number 6), stealing second base while HOFer Nellie Fox attempts to apply the tag. The throw was wild and Mantle would eventually take third on the error, showing how much his speed affected games early in his career. Any photograph of Mantle wearing number 6 is a rarity and this is a special pair that was issued by Acme and stamped on the back with a full paper caption as well.
