Dont i get a finders fee? JK. glad to help a fellow member out, wasnt sure what it was, and neither did the seller apparently. Other than it was a team issue, and i knew you had it on your want list.

Haha, I will think about the finders fee. To be honest, I am not entirely sure what it is either. I saw another one that Mantle sent to a fan in 1967 in response to an autograph request, so I assume it was some sort of team, or personal, issue from 1966/67. I wish there was a resource for these team issue photos as I have a handful that I just cannot date.

I guess they come in bunches. A month + off, and suddenly a handful of HOF rookies seemingly fall into my lap. This being the lone post-war one so far. I would've been happy to leave the '55 Golden stamp as my Alston representative, but I'm not one to pass up a nice deal on a pre-rookie minor league issue, especially on a "type" that wasn't represented yet in my collection..

Nice pick-up, Dave.

Finished my '58 set (been needing the Mick for over a year), and put big dents into my '55 and '66 sets (all high #'s). Good month for me!

Glad to add these to the collection.
