Seldom do we find an autograph coupling more appropriate in terms of teammates and presentation. The medium is a mildly toned OAL MacPhail sphere (grade “7”) and its endorsers are 1961 longball combatants Mickey Mantle and Roger Maris. The black ink signatures are reflective of the players’ respective personal traits and their standings in the eye of the public. Executed on the sweet spot, Mantle’s scripting is bold, indeed, projecting (“9”) strength and clarity. Relegated to the depths of the south panel, the self-effacing Maris has composed a much simpler autograph in terms of both size and strength. Vestiges of the complete scripting remain, though the penning resonates (“4”) quality. Full photo LOA from JSA.
