Finally found lost Mickey Mantle autographed baseball, that the hall of fame has been looking for 49 years! It is the seventh ball out of a set of seven that Mickey Mantle autographed in 1958. Autograph was written when he had a shoulder injury. Ball has been incased in airtight case for 49 years and is in mint condition!

The "7th ball" was an interesting spin too!

Did you know that Mickey starred in these great movies right after he signed that ball?

Did you send him a note to tell him? I did. It's still a bargain at a quarter of a million. :rolleyes:

I did the same and provided him all the info. Haven't received a reply yet. Amazes me the lies people make to sell their stuff, and don't even have some common knowledge to make it work.
