This is a collection of nine assorted Mickey Mantle items, most of which have been autographed by Mantle. First is a signed menu from Mickey Mantle's Restaurant and Sports Bar in New York City. There are also two signed yellow postcards of Mantle's plaque at the Baseball Hall of Fame at Cooperstown. Next is a "Fantastic First Issue" of a Mickey Mantle comic book from Magnum Comics signed by Mantle on the front cover. There are two replica Mantle bats: the first is a Louisville Slugger measuring 17" with a hand-painted likeness of Mantle on the barrel along with Mantle's inscription "Mickey Mantle No. 7" while the other is a 22" black Louisville Slugger replica with Mantle's facsimile signature on the barrel. Also included is a limited edition Mickey Mantle collector plate measuring 9" in diameter featuring a portrait of The Mick. Then there is a Mantle postcard from the Claridge Hotel and Casino signed, "Harry Thanks a lot, Mickey." Finally, there is a book entitled "Whitey and Mickey An Autobiography of the Yankee Years." Published in 1977 by Viking Press, this book has been signed on the flyleaf by both Mantle and his teammate Whitey Ford.
