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!
 

the whole picture isnt on there,this is an orginal picture but what i want to know for sure is this mickey?thank you for
reply.Anfd thanks for your suggestion.
 

i dont believe my mother would have had a picture of roger maris,but thanks for the comeback.
 

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

no i couldn't make out all the words,all tho i've look hard to find something like it.cant make out first letters.
 

thanks for the reply,myself i have compared the cheek bones ,ears and rest of facial features i believe its him,but dont want to say until i'm sure.
 

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.
 

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 718345Judgeing 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.
 

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!
 

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

ideal.
 

heres one from google
images
 

Dang, that does look like him,after all.
