Mastro auctioned off this huge 1962 Post Cereal Mickey Mantle and Roger Maris store banner in April 2002.
The overall 34″ x 48″ head-to-head format was meant to be hung over a string mid-aisle to afford a 24″ x 34″ view from either side. Mastro described it as a very fragile and exceedingly scarce collectible.
In the spring of 2012, Robert Edward Auctions sold the following banner variant used in Canadian stores.
It’s visually a little different and slightly smaller, 20” x 30” unfolded. It sold for $1778.
