During their 1961 pursuit of Babe Ruth's single-season mark of 60 home runs, rumors flew that Mickey Mantle and Roger Maris were feuding. In reality, they were tight and even shared an apartment during the season. This 15" x 19" photograph in brilliant color depicts the "M&M" boys in a brotherly pose, with Mantle's arm around Maris' shoulder. Mantle signed the photo, "Our Best, Mickey Mantle," in blue marker, with the signature rating a near-perfect 10. The photo is matted in a 20" x24" tan cardboard frame.
