Mickey Mantle autographed ball - Ted Williams autographed ball

EDIT TO SAY: On eBay starting tonight.

What I find interesting (and part of the reason I am selling these as a pair)... is that Mickey Mantle and Ted Williams agreed to share the sweet spot on each ball (500 HR show in Atlantic City, late 80s I believe).... that is why Ted Williams signed on the upper portion of the sweet spot, and Mickey Mantle signed on the lower portion of the sweet spot.

Just find it very cool that the autographs come with a story of mutual respect or courtesy given by Mickey and Williams for each other.





I personally was there to watch Mickey Mantle and Ted Williams sign each of the balls at the 500-HR card show in Atlantic City. I just recently got them authenticated by James Spence, so they come with a Letter of Authentication.

First come first served.


my current want list for trades:
--1914 Cracker Jack Walter Johnson
--T206 Cy Young
--E92 or similar horizontal Christy Mathewson
--A cool Ty Cobb card

Mickey Mantle Autographed ball and Ted Williams Autographed ball.

Both authenticated by James Spence (JSA)... and I am the original owner -- watched Mickey and Ted sign these balls in person.


I may list these on eBay tomorrow night, but as always - I would rather sell them to an N54er.

All offers will be responded to.

Joe
