I've had the pleasure of owning this Pop 1 ticket for about a year now.
After several months away from the hobby I just happened to find the matching piece...
The program-scorecard in what was a totally random find.
The game had approximately 9,000-10,000 in attendance. So I thought owning the matching scorecard one day was a far stretch. Luck happens sometimes.
Just wanted to share one of my favorite Mickey Mantle collectibles.
From May 22, 1963. Many articles found online. Mentioned in several Mantle documentaries. A mythical Home Run. Arguably one of Mantle's most famous Home Runs.
Even Mickey himself felt it was a pretty cool hit:
