Organized in June of 1961, Jeff
Randell's Mickey Mantle Fan Club grew
to 400 members by January 1962. The
club located in Forest Hills Queens,
N.Y. charged a yearly membership fee of
.25¢, to receive an "autographed
picture" and a monthly Bulletin. In
January 1962 club President Jeff
Randall, sent out a Bulletin,
announcing that the yearly membership
fees would be raised to $1.00, and for
members to enclose a self-addressed
stamped envelope each month.
The
February 1962 issue of Sport magazine,
with Roger Maris on the cover, features
the "Sport Talk Fan Club Notes"
mentioned in Jeff Randall's bulletin,
on page 16. The envelope in which the letter came in was post marked January 9, 1962,
cancelled at the Flushing N.Y.
Post
Office. A 5 inch by 7 inch photo of
Mickey Mantle featuring a facsimile
autograph with the salutation "Best
Wishes" was also inserted into the
envelope. This was the same picture
used for the
1959 Jay Publishing All-Stars issue.
