O/T Who is this with Mickey?

[xplainer]

Don’t know who it is, but a real possibility someone who ask for a photo after a chance meeting.
Only a guess.

From his outfit I would guess that he is a process server, who seems to reassuring Mickey that the suit he is holding is garbage.

Some sellers on eBay would claim it's Joe Jackson.

The noggin-topper on Mickey's friend is the type commonly worn in the 1920's, and thus of course it is Joe Jackson, because his last year in the majors was 1920.

I think that’s 1985 when Mantle did a little broadcasting. Could be a chance encounter or someone associated. Keep diggin. He may have looked a bit older in 85 - but the rest of the set fits.

I think you're right, John. I'll bet any number of 'executive producer' types were jumping at the chance to get a pic with the Mick.

He looks familiar, just can't put a name to him?
