Hi Scott,
Sports Collectors Digest did a feature on Mantle collectibles, which included a guide to his pins. Having trouble linking to it now. The guide features an identical pin and indicates that it was likely attached to souvenirs (pennants I believe) and distributes by vendors outside of Yankee stadium. The article suggests the origin is not 100% certain. They are apparently very rare and the article indicates that one sold at auction for $2,000. I don't know enough about pins to determine authenticity but can say that the picture, message, and typeface look spot on.
