Located at 42 Central Park South, NYC,
Mickey Mantle's Restaurant opened in
1988. Inside, the decor of sports
memorabilia and art made Mantle's one
of the more popular sports bars in the
city. Before checking into the Betty
Ford Clinic in 1994, the year before
the slugger passed away, Mantle was
often spotted schmoozing and sharing a
cocktail with fans inside his namesake
restaurant. The restaurant grossing
$3.9 million its first year, closed in
2012, due to increasing food prices,
shifting city regulations and landlord
interference.
The front flap of the Mickey Mantle's Restaurant and Sports Bar matchbook
features the restaurant's logo; with
Mickey Mantle's facsimile signature in
white, below the famed Yankee Stadium
facade. The back striker panel reads:
"Mickey Mantle's Restaurant and Sports
Bar, 42 Central Park South, New York,
New York 100019, 212 688 7777" The
saddle also has the phone number.
Inside the cover features Mickey
Mantle's 1956 season awards and
statistics.
