I noticed that PSA pop report has two versions of the 1972 Joe DiMaggio Bowery Bank. The first one, with the bat on Joe's shoulder, is pretty easy to find.
The second one, swinging, I have NEVER seen (until now). I finally saw one on eBay and successfully sniped it for around $20. I would point out here about curiosity and cats, but let's not resurrect that thread. We can just say that a fool and his money, well you know. :)
I was very suspicious that the photo looked just like the more modern Bowery card (1987, I think), but I waited for the mailman to prove it.
It arrived today, and sure enough, it is a 1987 Bowery card labeled by PSA as a 1972.
So, my question is: has anyone ever actually seen a legit 1972 DiMaggio Bowery swinging pose? Or is this just a PSA mistake?
No disrespect to the seller; by the way, they listed it just like the PSA flip said, and zipped it right to me after I paid.
