During their spectacular 1961 season, Mickey Mantle and Roger Maris were photographed more than any baseball teammates ever. This vintage 7” x 10” photo depicts both sluggers around the Yankee batting cage, where they intimidated opponent’s pitchers before the game even began. The verso has a few REF. stamp plus a “LIBRARY” file stamp, and handwritten date of “8/19/61”. This virtually unused file copy has one small wrinkle, but otherwise is in pristine uncirculated condition.
