Stuart Frederick Collection
Lots 20-70 originate from the personal collection of Stuart Frederick. Stuart has not
only been a valued client to Hunt Auctions but he is a dear friend. Stuart is well known within the
hobby as one of the leading collectors of Mickey Mantle and related New York Yankees memorabilia.
If you've ever heard someone at a show ask a dealer "Do you have any new Mantle items?", then
you have likely met Stuart. His collection is incredibly diverse yet amazingly consistent with regard
to quality and condition grade. Separately, Stuart embodies all that is good with this hobby. He has
always been willing to share his knowledge is a collaborative manner and is focused on the items
themselves rather than on their value or grade. We are extremely proud to announce that the Stuart
has selected our company to offer his personal collection which will be sold over a period of numerous
auctions in the coming months. This initial offering represents just a sampling of Stuart's formidable professional collecting achievement
Doug Harvey Collection

Harvey is widely regarded as one of the finest umpires in the history of the game having served
in the National League for 30 years between 1962-92. Famously nicknamed "God" by players Doug
Harvey presided over a total of 4,673 games ranking third all time. The items are being presented
directly by the Harvey family for the first time publicly.
