THE DIMAGGIO ALBUMS, ONE OF ONLY 700 SETS SIGNED BY JOE DIMAGGIO

Housed in original blue cloth slipcase with Yankees jersey logo and DiMaggio's number "5" on sides. In fine condition in the original cardboard box.
Joltin' Joe developed from "a gawky, awkward kid" to one of the game's most graceful athletes— a "picture player" both at bat and in center field. Many rate DiMaggio's 56-consecutive-game hitting streak in 1941 as the top baseball feat of all time. This two-volume commemorative album contains over 800 pages of newspaper accounts, photos and reproductions of memorabilia from DiMaggio's incomparable career, with an introduction and commentary by DiMaggio himself, and signed by him.
