Leon, To me it looks very well done...seems to have DiMaggio's gait down very well...Colors are superb...details like the equipment, shoes, socks, shin guards, umps mask are all excellent...the green of the field is great......The artist signature tells me a lot about a painting...this one is pro level...To me it looks like an accomplished artist did it...A painting like that I wouldn't even need to know if it was by a listed artist...One thing I really like about it is the brush strokes in the margin...so you know it's a painting...Some works are very hard to tell it it's a print or a painting...

The looming question about it is...was it painted during DiMaggio's playing days...if it was....phew!..to me it has a feel of from the period...Let me know what you need for it.
