Mickey Mantle Bat

[UnVme7]

If you measured correctly, I "believe" it to be from 1964. If you do plan to sell it, I would get a letter from Taube and put it in auction. If you're keeping it, I would just leave as is.

But, I will also add that just because it meets specs for that time period doesn't necessarily mean its a Mantle gamer.

I am pretty sure that depends on what auction it is in

so if i were to put this in at auction which site is the best in your opinion? I'm beginning to receive a ton of inquiries about the bat.

I cannot really weigh in on that. I was simply commenting that several of the auction houses take any potential connection and run with it. So, a bat that meets his specs could automatically turn into his favorite bat or the one he likely used during the world series or some other significant occasion.

The board's sponsors are a great way to start your search for an auction house though.
