| This is the famous Richard Gallo
photo which Mantle liked so much he had a painting commissioned from the photo.
This great piece is that painting lithograph of a young Mickey Mantle sitting in the
dugout.
This is one of the most famous shots of Mickey Mantle
ever in a baseball uniform. It was shot by Ray Gallo in 1956, and depicts
Mickey Mantle sitting in the dugout with a big grin on his face. This
photograph has been accepted by the Hall Of Fame in Cooperstown, from a
selection of over 25 years. Mickey claimed this photo to be "the
greatest photograph I've ever seen of myself." Gallo refers to this
photo as "a contrast to the greatness and mightiest power of all
baseball."
Mantle has signed in large bold blue marker. This
wonderful piece comes with a copy of the ticket for the Mantle autograph signing in
Worcester, MA in 1993 where he did the in-person signing. This particular item is in mint
condition and is rolled. You won't find a better one!! These are now
selling for over $1500 online or over $3000 at collectible retail
locations.
