The front of the card displays a horizontal action photograph of Mantle in his New York Yankees uniform during a batting follow-through. The image is presented with a white scalloped border resembling a postage stamp, set against a cream-colored background with navy blue pinstripes. The reverse side provides a detailed biographical account of the 1961 season, focusing on the home run race between Mantle and Roger Maris. It includes his 1961 statistics: a .317 batting average, 128 RBIs, and 54 home runs. The card features the Upper Deck logo on the front and a circular anti-counterfeit hologram on the reverse. This is an English language card.
