A unique piece of Mantle memorabilia, presented here is the original 11.25" x 14.75" page from the New York Mirror, dated March 20, 1951, featuring a detailed account of Mantle's Spring Training rookie debut. Making a splash in the first few exhibition games, the headline reads, "Yankee Mates Raving Over Mantle Prowess". Mantle has carefully place a choice signature along the center in blue felt tip pen. Aside from light but expected toning the page is in very fine condition. Accompanied by a full Letter of Authenticity from James Spence Authentication (JSA).
