No idea on value but I can date the advertising to 1942. It was widely used by LS at the time in different versions. Earlier in 1940 they used just the kissing image of DiMaggio and seemed to add Williams in 1942. Not sure if that was a newer contract signing; beyond my knowledge. Perhaps the combination ad can be found prior to 42’. I believe they changed to a crossed bat advertisement after 42’.
Couple current sales using the image

(Sorry for the confusing phrasing, lol. I just woke up.)
