Mickey Mantle Type 1 Photo Question
I just found this in an old picture frame of mine. Is this a type 1 photo? I did some research and it seems like they all have the publisher’s stamp on the back. It seems like Mickey Mantle Type 1’s sell for a lot of money. Thanks.
If it is a Type 1, what is the approximate value once slabbed by PSA? |

Looks like Type 1 to me, and is a GREAT photo. Heck, I'd buy it just for Doris Day... forget those two other guys!
Will leave the value to someone else... Prices of these photos are all over the board, and much depends on who sees it at the time of auction, and who wants it the most. Could go for $300 or could go for $3,000, depending on timing and other intangibles.

Think this is from the movie "That Touch of Mink", from 1962. You could try to date the UPI stamp and see if its from that time period. I would guess so.
Plenty of other photo experts on here who would know more. And there's no number of Type 1 photos issued. A Type 1 is just a designation given to a first gen photograph developed from an original negative during the period - within approx 2 years: https://www.psacard.com/services/pho...%20was%20taken). |

The bottom half of the stamp is blurred but the top half appears to be a UPI 1962-1970 stamp variation (United Press Main office - NYC).
Difficult to confirm entirely. I don't see a boxed stroke or outline on your stamp. Much of it is faded. If you still had the slug attached (paper caption) hen you'd know the whole story. Anyway, I'm using A Portrait of Baseball Photography book by Marshall Fogel and Henry Yee as a reference. Really, the only reference. |

Quite a few different photos with Mantle, Maris and Day Exist (all 1961 or 1962). The price range is anywhere from $27 for a wire photo up to nearly $500. I would value yours at the upper number.

Thank you. Where did you see the comps at? I could not find any with Doris Day.

Amazing. The similar one is not slabbed and does not even look like a type 1. Looks like it was cut out of a newspaper?

The spread the photo could bring is huge, I wouldn't be surprised if it did $200 however I also wouldn't be surprised if it did $750.
