IN AN INTERVIEW MANTLE CLAIMED THAT THIS WAS HIS FAVORITE LITHO. NAMED "YANKEE 7" THE REGULAR LITHO HAD AN ISSUE OF 250. THIS IS THE ARTIST'S PROOF. #49 OF 50AP SIGNED BY BOTH MICKEY MANTLE AND THE ARTIST CM WENDELL. FRAMED AND DOUBLE MATTED 32 X 40 INCHES. NOTE, THE GLASS HAS BEEN REMOVED. OTHERWISE, EXTRA SPECIAL PACKING WOULD HAVE TO BE PROFESSIONALLY DONE FOR THIS LARGE ITEM, MAKING SHIPPING VERY EXPENSIVE AND STILL RISKY IN TERMS OF THE POSSIBILITY OF GLASS BREAKAGE AND INSURANCE CLAIM, AND DAMAGE TO THE ITEM. THE BUYER WILL HAVE TO HAVE GLASS APPLIED AT A PROFESSIONAL FRAMERS.
