 Mickey Mantle's home uniform from the 1968 season once resided in Mantle’s restaurant on Central Park South in Manhattan. Today, it is part of Marshall Fogel’s collection, along with an autographed bat used by Mantle in 1961, and a 1952 Topps baseball card of Mantle graded “Gem Mint 10” by PSA – perhaps the most popular baseball card ever issued, and one of only three to be awarded this lofty grade.
