Photo number 19 of 536 would only add extra value if there were only 536 Mickey Mantle signed photos in existence. Mickey Mantle signed often and signed more than his share of photos. This 19/536 limited edition is nothing more than a marketing ploy by a promoter selling autographs. The limited edition would be no higher in value than another 16 x 20 photo with equal eye appeal.
The notarized certificate of authenticity was new, and growing in popularity just before The Upper-Deck company introduced their hologram authenticity system. The trust of the collector in the authenticator of the signature holds a big part on how high of a value the signature sells for. The notarized authenticity might hold some weight but I do not think it would compete in price with The Upper-Deck authenticated items, that Mantle was under contract with before his passing. Third party authenticators like PSA/DNA or James Spence might also sell at a higher price.
