Shopping for a Mantle signed ball

I think Mantle did signings well into the 90's until his death in 1995. There should be a lot of legit autographs out there. Does anyone know of a highly reputable dealer that might have one for sale? I don't really know a lot of autograph dealers and which ones are extremely trust worthy. Can anyone help me out? I was hoping that there might have been a dealer somewhere that had a private signing with him.

    Roger Neufeldt, at Sports Memories, in Norman, Oklahoma used to deal directly with Mickey in the 1980's. Might wanna check with him, to see what he may have. Roger is a top notch guy, and really honest. If not, I would just go UDA, as you know what you are getting.

    Thanks Stan the Man, I located his website and shot him an e-mail. It looks like he might have some other stuff that interests me. I'll browse his website when I have some more time. Thanks for your help!

    The man you are looking to talk to is Tom Catal .

    He was Mickey Mantle's original signing agent .

    1 607 547-1273 , that is the number for the Mickey Mantle museum in Cooperstown .

    If anyone can tell you where to get a quality Mick , he is the man .

    There have to be a half million fake Mick autos out there if you're lookin fore the Mick , talk to Tom and tell him Sapo sent ya .

    Yes, that would be awesome to have, but I think it might be out of my price range.
