Mantle vs Mays
 

Ok if you have not seen this before it's really good, and if you have, you probably can't remember who takes it.

So watch it again, try and guess who you think will win.

You can see when the moderator is telling them how much money they can make the better they do, you can see it in their faces they are thinking about that money.

Then it's game on

Watch it:

and again guess who takes it and then see if you were right.

Very first pitch to Willie......."GONE!"

then Mickey is thinking...."alright Willie slow down"

What a great show!

Very enjoyable. Thanks. Saw Willie play, never saw Mantle.

HR Derby
 

Great show..... very enjoyable. It was so fun back in those days, heroes and mutual respect.... not everything political and angry all the time. Both guys smiling and doing their thing. God Bless both men!

Good stuff! Mickey probably spent his $2k at a bar. :p

Original home run derby
 

I loved watching these re-runs as a kid. It’s too bad it ended so soon after Mark Scott’s Unexpected death.
I have 3 really cool original type 1 photos of this day/episode. Each were used for various marketing items but this one is probably the most Poignant.

Mays never hit for the cycle. Interesting.

Incredibly cool, Ben. Love the original photo used for the promo card.

Epic!

Thank you Mark. This show actually showed me what these guys were like as a kid and fueled my collecting. The photos were a must have.
