Let's see what you have of "The Yankee Clipper"

[Easy506]

Both signed around 1995. Joe almost didn't sign the Williams photo as he said something similar to....I told him not to sign anymore of these photos! He did end up signing it and then got happy when I gave him the Model Builder magazine to sign. He said something like.....I loved those trains.

A sweet ashtray presentation piece to Joe from the "Martinez Italian American Boys Club" from his estate. This piece is special to me because my Mother had joined me up in a similar club when I was about 7 or 8.

Also, a terrific TYPE I portrait c. 1930's.

My 18 x 14 combination photo of Joe D--the 1st panel shows him as a Rookie in 1936 and the 2nd was taken in the Yankee office when he was there to announce his retirement after the 1951 season.

I paid something like $25 for a single sig @ a show in Prov, RI in the middle '80's and while we were talking he went ahead & signed both sides for me!

I got it around late '51 or early '52 & have never seen another combo photo like this anywhere. It may have been issued by a Buffalo NY newspaper, but I'm not entirely sure.

I got this one a very long time ago and Mr. DiMaggio was as nice as he could be to me. I had heard others had a surly exprience with the Yankee Clipper but he even personalized this one for me without me asking. Just recently sent this to PSA/DNA more for encapsulation than authentication since I knew it was real.

I saw Joe @ golf tourney once and he was as nice as could be and signed a few items for several folks.
