Presented here is a 7 7/8 x 9 7/8-inch black and white photograph of Mickey Mantle, Frank Baker and Joe DiMaggio taken by renowned photographer Don Wingfield circa 1956 at Yankee Stadium. Wingfield was the famed New York Yankee photographer, working for the Bronx Bombers as well as The Sporting News, the Washington Senators and the Topps Company. He also free-lanced work for national magazines such as LIFE and LOOK. His friendly nature and true professionalism endeared him to many players, who many years later would speak fondly of. This photograph shows the three Yankee greats decked out in their bright white home pinstriped uniforms. All three are holding bats that meet up in front of DiMaggio (who was positioned on the far right). Mantle is looking slightly off-camera to his right, Baker looking off camera to his left with DiMaggio looking at Wingfield’s camera. The back of this photo has a “PHOTO BY DON WINGFIELD” stamp when he was based out of Alexandria, Virginia and other markings. This photograph displays edge wear with pine holes on the corners and comes with a LOA from PSA/DNA (1P16129) and has been classified as a Type I photo.
