I have a baseball personally signed by DiMaggio with the added inscription "Yankee Clipper". This was obtained from him at his children's hospital, in person, for free. GRATIS. Before we dump on Joe, ask yourself, how many sign for free today? Not very many, yes?

It is a fact that they did not like each other. Sometimes they were forced through contracts to sign the same item at shows but neither liked doing it. The dual signed items are rare and sell for a nice premium. A dual signed ball will easily go for $2K or likely more.
