I asked him about the Mantle Chris but he didn't remember where he got it. He has a bunch of other auto's that he got through the mail besides the ones in this
book but he found the book while they are preparing to move.
I remember him showing me a piece a couple of years ago that had all the 1948 Cleveland players auto's on it. He had put tape over all the signatures
like this Williams postcard he gave me a few years ago.

When I take the book back to him I'll ask him again but I don't think he will remember. Does anyone know if they sold the Mantles at the HOF? We are
less than 2hrs from Cooperstown and that's probably where he got some items signed including the multi signed item.
