Reggie, I forgot to tell you about this one (if you haven't already heard it?)
This is a pic of my Uncle Sam with Mickey Mantle at the 1958 World Series that is now in my possession as well.
My Uncle Sam is the man closest in the pic and the man closest to Mickey Mantle is his friend, Norm. The other man in the pic, or than man standing between my Uncle Sam and his friend, Norm, is none other than Dizzy Trout.
It's a bit faded from it's original state, but still displays well and is another piece I am totally grateful to have in my collection.
