Signed Photo of Joe DiMaggio

10 ½" x 13 ½" photo in a 20" x 22 ¾" frame. Signed by DiMaggio in black marker. Color photo of uniformed DiMaggio in a batting stance, framed in dark brown wood, matted in tan, with a gold label at foot of matte. About fine, with a few very light marks to the photo. Overall, a great photo of a young DiMaggio. Joe DiMaggio played all thirteen seasons of his career with the New York Yankees and was selected as an All-Star thirteen times. With his exemplary hitting and fielding (he was nicknamed "The Yankee Clipper" because of how he sailed around the outfield) he helped power the Yankees to nine World Series titles. He holds the record for the longest hitting streak, at 56 games, which is considered one of the most statistically remarkable records in all of sports. Outside of baseball, he was known for his high-profile marriage with Marilyn Monroe. DiMaggio was one of the rare athletes that transcended his sport: his association with a bygone era of America was noted in Simon and Garfunkel's Grammy Award-winning song, "Mrs. Robinson." Ted Williams said, "His career cannot be summed up in numbers and awards. It might sound corny, but he had a profound impact on the country.". Signed. Framed Photo. Near Fine. 20" x 22 ¾" .
