          I THOUGHT I HAD IT SOLD , BUT NOT SURE HOW IT GOING TO WORK OUT.
          THERE IS A SMALL CHANCE THE GUY KEEPS IT. BUT THERE HAS BEEN A ERA ON MY PART ON SHIPPING. BUT I KNOW THE GUY WILL SEND IT BACK TO ME. AND THEN I WILL PUT TOGETHER A PICTURE AND LETTER.
          BUT IM NOT GOING TO SELL IT UNTIL I CAN FIND A PHOTO OF HIM IN IT.
          ITS FROM THE 80'S I KNOW THAT FROM THE TAG. AND IT CAME WITH A LETTER FROM THE MAN MANTLE GAVE IT TO AND MANTLE SIGNED AND DATED . THE MAN MADE ME A COPY OF THE LETTER AND WILL NOT PART WITH THE ORIGINAL BECAUSE IT WAS SIGNED.
          I JUST WANT TO FIND A GOOD PHOTO BEFORE I CONTINUE TO SELL IT.
          ALSO THE NUMBER 7 ON THE BACK IS LIKE THE 7 ON HIS JERSEY IN HIS EARLY PLAYING DAYS.
          IF YOU CAN HELP ME FIND A PICTURE OF 80,S OLD TIMERS GAMES IT WOULD REALLY BE NICE.

            Treasure-Trunk,

            What are you referencing?

            I believe Henmick44 is asking about the jersey shown above, which is from the 1970s.

            Do you have a another Mantle jersey from the 1980s?

                Road or Home jersey?

                Can you post clear photos of the jersey, tagging, and letter?

                Would like to see it, and perhaps we can help you match it up.

                    Why would Mantle sign a letter from Rickey Watterson? Also, the Mantle is a copied signature of Mantle. Hence, the breaks in the Mantle autograph, which I also have issues with.

                      Re: Mantle Old Timer Jersey

                      This Is A Copy Of The Letter. The Man I Got It From Wanted To Keep The Original. I Saw It. We Took It Out Of A Shadow Box. A Copy Was The Best I Could Do. The Signature Looked Good To Me. Also I Really Just Wanted Someones Opinion. I Had Never Sa One Of These Jerseys. I Know The Signature As Good And Know This Is A Copy Of The Letter. A Really Nice Man Has Been Offering To Help So I Posted Some Pix.
                      Thanks

                        Still, why would Mantle sign a letter from Waterson? It states "I, Rickey Waterson," yet is signed by Mantle? That does not make sense to me.

                          TT,

                          It appears you received a copy of a letter someone made up and transposed a copy of a Mantle autograph on.

                          If you can get your money back, you may want to pursue that route.

                          There is really nothing shown to tie that jersey to Mantle except a dubious copy of a non-sensical letter.
