Beautiful Mantle autograph! I love these two Mantle photos but have no idea about the age. They are beautiful and I vaguely remember seeing them before.

Thanks for the info. Definitely the same photo shoot.

I'm guessing these were prints from the 80's but they are matted by the collector so I cannot see the back of the photos.
