Mickey Mantle's legacy as a Yankee fan favorite and all-time great continues to resonate among sports historians and hobbyists alike. While his cardboard from the Golden Era of remains a hot commodity, anything worn by the Commerce Comet is rabidly coveted by collectors in today's thriving game used market.
Presented here is an authentic 1954 Mickey Mantle New York Yankees game-worn jacket in excellent condition. The cold-weather warm-up jacket produced by Rawlings features a large Yankees "NY" logo on the left chest, with The Mick's iconic number "7" stitched on the front left pocket. A size 42 (appropriate for Mantle) Rawlings tag is sewn on the inside as well. According to the authentication, the Rawlings tagging is specific to the 1953-56 era. The jacket shows solid evidence of wear expected for a one worn before, during and after many games. There are loose threads throughout the stitching and two buttons missing on the front.
The jacket is accompanied by a 1987 letter from Mickey Mantle explaining that the jacket was issued to him during the Yankees' 1954 World Series championship season. He later gifted it to his longtime friend, Dr. Marshall L. Ishmael. An image of Mantle and Dr. Ishmael with the jacket is included. The signature on Mantle's letter of provenance has been authenticated with a JSA LOA. The jacket itself comes with a detailed LOA from Sports Investors Authentication.
