Default Febuary Pickups
Picked up this 1961 original wire photo of Mickey Mantle. I really enjoy the press photos as they are pretty unique and the action shots are incredible. (I think I should have put this in the memorabilia section-my bad!)

This is a beautiful pic of Mantle chasing Babe Ruth's home run record during the 1961 season. I am going to get it graded and display it next to my Mantle Hartland Statue.

I also picked up the E101 Bescher in the Sterling Auction. It has a bad back but the front has great presentation.
