Mickey Mantle autographed original illustration artwork by Leo O'Mealia c.1950s. Very well executed likeness done on 10.75"x13.25" artist's stock paper. The mark of noted illustrator Leo O'Mealia who was on staff with the New York Daily News appears at lower right (in the form of a small lion). Presumably done in the late 1950s (as Mantle's salary approached the $77,000 level referenced). Signed "Mickey Mantle" in ink rating 9/10 out of 10. Touch of light natural age and handling wear. Includes auction LOA from JSA: Sig. NM/MT, Illustration EX

Estimate:$750
