Baseball Pilgrimages
Where the pursuit of baseball never ends.
[Site Map]

Mounted Memories has produced a collection of seven framed photographs in honor of baseball's most famous number seven, Mickey Mantle. Each photo is double matted in a black wooden frame and accompanied by a descriptive laser engraved plate. Licensed by Major League Baseball, each piece in the "Mickey Mantle Classic Moments" series is limited in edition to 1,956 in honor of The Mick winning the Triple Crown in 1956.

Mickey Mantle Classic Moments #1
Next in Line (1951)
Mantle made it to the Big Apple and Big Leagues in 1951. He began his career with the Yankees as a teenager and right fielder, wearing the number six, which can be seen on his back in this photo. Mickey became the team's full-time center fielder in 1952, following the retirement of Joe DiMaggio, who called the 19-year old rookie "the greatest prospect I can remember."

The caption on the plate beneath the photo says:
MICKEY MANTLE
"Next in Line"
As a rookie in 1951, Mantle was given the #6 to follow in the footsteps of Yankee legends, Ruth (#3), Gehrig (#4) & DiMaggio (#5).

Triple Crown (1956)
Mantle won the first of his three league MVP awards in 1956, when he became just the 12th player in baseball history to win the Triple Crown. In this photo, a youthful Mickey is shown alongside manager Casey Stengel wearing a crown and holding three bats on which his Triple Crown winning batting average, home run and RBI totals are written.

Cashing In (1957)
Mantle was able to cash in following his Triple Crown season by a signing a contract on February 4, 1957 that doubled his salary from $30,000 to $60,000, which was still ten grand less than Babe Ruth made in 1927 but four times larger than the 1957 league average of approximately $15,000. In this photo, a properly attired Mantle is shown celebrating his new contract on the snow covered field at The House That Ruth Built by hitting snowballs.

The Bronx Bombers (1961)
Mantle hit a career-high 54 home runs in 1961 but was overshadowed by Roger Maris, who hit 61 to break the record of 60 that Babe Ruth had set 34 years prior. As a team, the 1961 Yankees hit 240 homers, a record that would stand for 35 years. After the M&M Boys, the most proficient home run hitters on the record-breaking squad were Bill Skowron (28) and Yogi Berra (22). In this photo, the four All-Star teammates are shown together in a pose for the ages.

The caption on the plate beneath the photo says:

"The Bronx Bombers"
The 1961 Yankees, behind Maris, Berra, Mantle & Skowron were one of the most feared lineups in baseball history.

Mickey Mantle Classic Moments #5
The Mick
"Somebody once asked me if I ever went up to the plate trying to hit a home run. I said, 'Sure, every time,'" said the man known as "The Mick." To this day, no switch hitter has topped the 536 home runs Mantle hit in his career, nor has anyone broke his record of 18 World Series home runs. This photo of Mantle on deck clearly shows the two things most often associated with him: his uniform number (7) and the logo of his team.

The caption on the plate beneath the photo says:

"The Mick"
Mantle slugged 536 career home runs making him a member of the elite 500 Home Run Club.

Mickey Mantle Day (1965)
The first of four Mickey Mantle Days held at Yankee Stadium took place on September 18, 1965 to coincide with Mantle's 2,000th career game in pinstripes. During his speech, The Mick confided to a crowd of 51,664, "I’ve been very nervous on this ballpark many times in the last 15 years but never any more nervous than I am right now." This photo shows Mickey at the mic and New York Senator Robert F. Kennedy, among others, in the background.

Hanging it Up (1969)
Mantle announced on March 1, 1969 that he was retiring from baseball and 100 days later the Yankees retired his number, an honor the team had previously only bestowed upon Lou Gehrig, Babe Ruth and Joe DiMaggio. "It was all I lived for, to play baseball," Mantle once said, and few ever played the game better. This photo shows The Mick on the day his jersey was retired, an event that officially ended his two decade tenure in the Bronx.

The caption on the plate beneath the photo says:

"Hanging it Up"
June 8, 1969 was declared Mickey Mantle Day at Yankee Stadium. The legend had his number 7 retired before 61,157 at The Stadium.
