 "Whitey and Mickey An Autobiography of the Yankee Years" 1st Edition Book 
  
  
 I have for sale the out-of-print, 1st edition, hardcover book "Whitey and 
 Mickey An Autobiography of the Yankee Years" by Whitey Ford, Mickey Mantle, 
 and Joseph Durso (1977). The edition contains 205 pages with black and 
 white photographs as well as complete Major League Baseball statistics and 
 records of both Whitey Ford and Mickey Mantle. 
 Front Jacket Excerpt: 
 "During the 1960s and 1960s baseball in America was dominated by the new 
 York Yankees with their great, unmatched run of success. And the Yankees in 
 turn were dominated during that epoch by two players-the country boy and 
 the city boy-both with a rousing flair for drama on the field and for high 
 living off the field: Mickey Charles Mantle and Edward Charles Ford. They 
 joined the Yankees in 1950, when Casey Stengel was the manager and Joe 
 DiMaggio the resident household god. They stayed for 18 summers, 11 World 
 Series, 536 home runs (by Mantle, switch hitting), and 236 victories 
 (pitched by Ford). They were teammates and they were roommates, and they ran 
 together through two decades of life on the national stage. By the time 
 they entered the Baseball Hall of Fame on the same day in the 1970s, they 
 were folk-heroes of the Yankee legend: Mickey and Slick. Now, for the first 
 time, Mickey Mantle and Whitey Ford reminisce in public about how it was 
 during the glory years, in the days when the Yankees owned the ball." 
 The "Whitey and Mickey An Autobiography of the Yankee Years" 1st edition, 
 hardcover book is in excellent condition. 
 Price $35. US plus postage 
  
  
 Please include your "postal mailing address" so I can calculate postage 
 costs to your destination. Thank you
