Scott, the Mantle, Bench and Snider are definitely authentic.
Too bad the Snider is faded.

Someone else messaged me bout this also. Im thinking 150 range or is that too high? I told guy Mantle single would be better, but I don't know bout this type

The Fleece Mop looks good as well.
That gives the ball the ever coveted Mickey, Fleece Mop & the Duke ADD Bench & Seaver. I think it's a 200-300 ball, just a conversation piece. At least it's not like paying $400.00 for a Mantle Duke & Mays that's fake:)

I have got several messages and have contacted my friend and see whether he will take the 150. If he wants me to try and get more, Id auction it, if 150 is ok w him, the first person who messaged me or posted he would take it for that will get it. Hopefully we will know soon.
And what is the fleece mop Chuck? Musta missed the joke;)

Scott, $150.00 is way too low.
That's a nice Mantle on the sweet spot.
No less than $300.00.

To everyone: Someone just sent me an offer a decent amt over 150 and my told me to take it right away, Maybe someone could have gone more, but he needs the money fast and didn't want to risk it. . Thanks for all your interest,

Nice ball, I think the 250-300 range was a fair assessment.

For some reason, back in the 80's when all the scoreboard stuff was being sold around town, we coined the Mays Auto the "Fleece Mop"...His signature looks nothing like Willie Mays, but at first glance, that's what it looks like. Long live the Fleece Mop. LOL
