Default 1950 Mickey Mantle Joplin Miners
I found the picture of Mickey from his days in Joplin so I tried my hand at a Custom card.

Here is what the Custom Minor League card looks like printed. Been trying out making custom cards, not very good at it yet.

Did I miss something? Why did this thread turn into a question of "Where's Mickey buried?" I'm confused.

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.

Hi Ben - nice work - I love seeing these projects.

For what it's worth, one small technicality for the back of your card: The two-letter state abbreviations didn't start until around 1963. Before that, Oklahoma (if not fully spelled out) would have been abbreviated as "Okla."

The USPS switched to "OK" in '63.

Keep up the good work!

I don't know where Mickey was buried, but he was from Pitcher, Okla, or
at least lived there when he was young, which is not far from Joplin.
