Very early vintage glossy 8 x 10 photo of Mantle taking a mighty swing, signed and inscribed in fountain pen, “To Jimmy Hackett, My best wishes, a pal, Mickey Mantle.” In very good condition, with scattered creases and an area of brown staining to the left border. Hackett would go on to win a Silver Star in Vietnam for his gallantry in action. A highly desirable photo as signed portraits of Mantle from the start of his career are quite uncommon and highly sought-after. Pre-certified Steve Grad/PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
