Mickey Mantle headlined the Hall of Fame class of 1974. But then, 'headlining' was nothing new to Mantle, who was always at the center of attention. In blue ballpoint, The Mick placed an outstanding signature on this OAL (Brown) ball, and then added the notation, "HOF '74" on the sweet spot. The ball is in NM-MT condition with a couple of areas of very light toning present on the unsigned panels, otherwise fine. The bold signature rates a solid "9-10" with the overall grade a solid 7.5 by PSA/DNA. Authenticated by PSA/DNA with their encapsulation only.
