He also helped power the Yankees to seven World Series titles. Mantle was elected to the Hall of Fame in 1974 and was selected for the prestigious All-Century Team in 1999. Of The Mick: The book abounds with those memories of when Mantle was the toast of the town. More than that though it movingly recounts the private events of his remarkably public life; from his humble beginnings to his personal triumphs in and out of baseball to the tragedy that haunts four generations of his family. Mickey Mantle hit his 151st home run against the Cleveland Indians in the bottom of the 4th inning on July 14th 1956. The Yankees won the game 5-4 and the team went on to win the World Series that year.

1840ref. 008068Strasbourg: Emile Simon Fils 1840. First Edition. Quarter Morocco. Marbled paper pastedown on boards. Very Good. Colorful 1840 three day celebration of the unveiling of a statue to Johann Gutenberg which occurred on June 24 through the 26th 1840. This stunning color plate book is almost entirely devoted to the endless parade organized for the event that proceeded during the second day or the 25th -- based on the dates given in the plate captioning. In this parade each of many professions had its own contingent and dressed and carried a sometimes impressive prop reflecting on the profession. From the vast number of paraders it would seem that virtually everyone in Strasbourg was an active participant.

Fold-out plates are counted as two plates in the enumeration which thus goes up to the number 53. In complete form this book is scarce.
