February 2016 New Pick Ups

Holy Cow!!!!! I NEVER thought in my wildest dreams that I would add something like this to my Joe DiMaggio collection!!!!

Quick thanks to my girlfriend, who stopped at the post office for me (I work too late to get there), and signed for it.

I have to make sure I clarify that it is not a real gamer. The seller said that Whitey and Mickey used to run a fantasy camp back in the '80s, and it is likely that it came from that. He had a Mantle companion jersey for sale with a similar inscription, and I was able to photo match that to Mick at fantasy camp in about 1 minute on Google, so I took the chance on Joe (I thought about Mick, but unfortunately, couldn't afford both).

But I don't care, because I got the jersey that Whitey got right off Joe's back!

A co-worker who collects WWII aircraft photos bought a collection and found this baseball photo in the stack. He knew I collect Tiger items and gave it to me.
