You might try posting this in the What Is It? forum.
The folks there love to research this kind of thing.

You may want to put some sort of a "watermark" or something on the photo you post here. If it IS a never before seen photo of Mickey Mantle, you don't want others making copies and trying to sell them until you have had it checked and appraised! Could be worth some money!

Looks more like Roger Maris than the "Mic" to these eyes.

Can you make out the name on his jersey?

 

[austin]

The name looks like NATHAN's. Famous Coney Island hot dog kings. Probably the sponsor...

 

[countrygrammy]

[DocBeav]

Doesn't look like Mickey to me. Name on jersey appears to be Be_nnans. Doesn't match any of teams he ever played for.

 

[Frankn]

Tecnnan's it appears to be. I don't know dip about baseball, but it appears to be a gold coin on the fence by his right cuff. By the way, he's a right hander. Frank

View attachment 718345 Judgeing from the quality of the image, I would gess that it is not a commercial print.

It looks like Mantle. The first letter certainly looks like "B". He threw right and was a switch hitter. But as someone mentioned, the jersey name does not match any team he played for.

 

[countrygrammy]

i belive the first letter is a B too there is or was a famous restarant in st louis and texas i believe,id have to look it up again but i think its spelled bennans. was wondering maybe he did an advertizing thing for them.Just guessing wish,i could find out.Thanks guys keep diggin!

 

[countrygrammy]

the speeling would be Brennans but im not sure if the restarant has be in bussiness long enough,just thought it was an

ideal.

[ray in ny]

Dang, that does look like him,after all.
