Hartland Plastics was way ahead of its time when it produced 8" figures honoring baseball's best from the 1960s. Featured subjects included current stars of the time (Mickey Mantle, Willie Mays, Ted Williams, Nellie Fox, Roger Maris, Eddie Mathews) and even a dose of nostalgia with the inclusion of Babe Ruth.

Many of the Hartlands have yellowed over time. This was due to the type of plastic used. While a pure white Hartland (mixed with virgin plastic) commands a premium, a yellowed version (most likely made with second generation plastic) is accepted. Another major point of contention is if the figure is able to stand or not.

Hank Aaron is in his batting stance on this Hartland statue. Moderate toning and a substance on the right underside of the foot leads us to grade this as EX.
