This truly rare and seldom-seen piece is one of the finest Mickey Mantle advertising pieces we've handled for numerous reasons, including its exceptional graphics, condition and the fact that it is tied to a popular Mantle card issue. This immensely appealing cardboard display ad for Armour Franks offers a genuine Rawlings Mickey Mantle glove for $5.00 and an Armour coupon. The colorful 11" x 7" ad features Mickey and a detailed image of the glove. The pocket of the glove heralds Mantle as a Triple Crown Winner. The ad copy dates the piece as "new for 1967." Completely original and unaltered, it appears in NM condition with light surface rubbing at extremities. Mounted and framed overall dimensions of 15 1/2" x 11 1/2".
