Default 1957 World Series Batting Foes

Picked up this vintage 7 x 9 image of Mickey Mantle and Hank Aaron at Yankee Stadium during the 1957 World Series.
This image was used for the 1958 Topps card number 418 - "World Series Batting Foes"
Although I am a Yankees fan, Hank Aaron was my favorite player as a teenager in the late 1960's - early 1970's as I rooted for him to become the all-time Home Run King.
The International News Photos stamp on the back didn't come out well in the scan, but it is the one used from 1949 - 1957, according to "A Portrait of Baseball Photography"
