FS-Pair of awesome Mickey Mantle ticket stubs-Last time reaching base!
FS-2 Very Cool Mickey Mantle stubs from his last year...
9/8/68: Mickey Mantle goes 2 for 3 netting hits 2400 & 2401 in a 7-2 victory over the senators. Mickey would wind up his career a few weeks later with a total of 2,415 hits
9/27/68: Yankees lose 8-2 in Mickey Mantle's second to last game (last full game). Mickey goes 0 for 3 with a walk in his 2400th game. The walk turned out being the last time he would reach base in his career. The following day Mickey appeared in his final game. He popped out in the top of the first, trotted out to his position and was sooned summoned to the dugout by manager Ralph Houk for defensive replacement Andy Kosco.
A very cool mantle lot the yanks ticket is crease free but has some paper loss on the front, the sox ticket has no paperloss but does have a crease (more like a wrinkle that does not break the surface) and can only be seen upon close inspection...
Some pretty cool history here...
