DiMaggio vs Mantle at card shows

I’m currently reading Morris Engelberg’s book about Joe DiMaggio and he says how great he was with the fans at card shows. That he took the time to look you in the eyes and say a few words before signing your item. He also says that Mantle didn’t do that and it was strictly business for him. Honestly I was under the impression that it was the opposite and that Mickey was much more friendly. What was your experience with those two legends ?
