Mantle photograph with giant baseball bat, copyright, etc?

DJJazzBass

A few questions for the baseball photo experts:
I recently acquired four 5x7 baseball photographs. There are no markings on the back except a 12 digit code on each. The interesting photo is of a young Mickey Mantle holding a gigantic baseball bat in a stadium. I don’t see anything like it on the web, but I obviously haven’t reached the end of the web yet. How can I find out who the copyright owner is or find out more information? Has anyone seen a photo similar to what I described? If so, please post a link or picture.
Thank you.

This one clearly falls short of a gigantic baseball bat...but we got a young Mick and a stadium. The search continues...







Can you share the photo?

It would probably be more helpful if you post a pic of it.

I took a picture of a part of the photograph, just in case there is some sort of copyright issue. I’m still trying to find out what the 12 digit code on the back of the photo means. Is it a copyright, is it part of a photo catalog? Anything else? Where is a good place to research it? Thank you.

That looks like the paddle Mrs. Anderson used in 4th grade!
