The comparisons between Mickey Mantle and Mike Trout have persisted since early in Trout's career, and probably won't be going away anytime soon. The similarities, after all, are hard to ignore. Trout is the image of No. 7 in pinstripes, chiseled from the neck to the ankles, and he plays just like the Yankees legend, crushing baseballs and running them down with blinding speed in center field. It's no surprise, then, that a dual-signed baseball between the two generations of superstars would be highly desirable - and also rare! Offered here is one such example, an Official American League (Brown) baseball signed by Mickey Mantle on the sweet spot and Mike Trout just above Mantle's iconic scripting. Both ballpoint signatures present exceptionally well, rating a "9-10" overall, and the ball is fine overall with a uniform off-white appearance with but a light hint of toning. With Mantle's legendary status already fixed in stone and Trout's status only going to continue rising, this is a true investment opportunity for the baseball collector! Accompanied by a full Letter of Authenticity from James Spence Authentication (JSA) for the Mantle autograph and affixed with a hologram from MLB for the Trout autograph.
