A star from the first day he set foot on the field, Mickey Mantle was New York and New York loved Mickey Mantle. A sixteen-time All-Star, Mickey was a three-time MVP and won a Gold Glove in 1962. In 1956 Mantle had perhaps his greatest season winning a Triple Crown. This Mickey Mantle signature model Louisville Slugger has "New York Yankees" and "536 HR - 1509 RBI's" burned into the barrel. The Mick signed the barrel below this in silver paint pen with the signature rating an 8. The bat itself is in excellent to near mint condition with few flaws. The autograph comes with a letter from PSA/DNA.
