Three of the New York Yankees all-time greats together in one lot. The first of the three 8x10 framed and matted photos shows a young Mickey Mantle in his right-handed batting stance. Mantle has beautifully signed the photo in blue sharpie and added the inscription “No. 7.” The second photo is of Phil Rizzuto poised in the throwing position he used at shortstops that helped the Yankees to seven World Series titles during his career. Rizzuto has also signed the photo in blue sharpie and added the inscription “HOF 94.” The third photo is of Whitey Ford displaying his pitching technique that earned him a CY Young and World Series MVP Award in 1961, ten All-Star appearances during his career and a Hall of Fame induction in 1974. Ford has also signed the photo in blue sharpie. All three photos have been authenticated and stickered by JSA with two having authentication numbers (B92922 and E43419).
