This
is a 1966 New York Yankee Picture Pack Day Mickey Mantle
Photo. The 12 photos with facsimile Autographs were
given away at Yankee Stadium on August 28 1966 to boys,
and girls 14 years of age, and under. The set includes Mickey Mantle,
Whitey Ford, Roger Maris, Tom Tresh, Bobby Richardson, Elston Howard, Mel Stottlemyre, Joe Pepitone, Jim Bouton, Al Downing, Clete Boyer, and Mgr. Ralph Houk.
The set also came with a Yankee Decal transfer. The
photo bottom left shows the promotion that appeared in
the 1966 Yankee Scorecard (right). The Pictures were printed on
paper stock, not photo quality paper. The Article
also states "Another Yankee First". It is
possible that the Yankees were the first team to have
this type of Stadium promotion.
