The Mantle and Mays Baseballs,
product no. 3144, were manufactured by
the Transogram Company Inc., N.Y.
in 1967. From 1962-69, Transogram made a number
of plastic products that featured
baseball Hall of Famers Mickey Mantle
and Willie Mays. In the first year, the
endorsement contract with Transogram
earned the two players more money in
royalties than they did from playing
baseball with their respective ball
clubs that year. The Copyright MCMLXVII
(1967) Transogram Company Inc. Mantle &
Mays baseballs came with three
regulation size baseballs.
Both sides of the red, white & black die-cut cardboard package that houses
the three balls pictures black & white
head shots of Mickey Mantle on the
left, and Willie Mays on the right. At
the bottom after the Transogram
trademark logo reads "The Champions
Choice" In 1965 No. 3144 came with
3 baseballs in a bag, 3144C, 3 baseballs
in a tray. The same style package but
yellow and blue & black.
