The “Yankee Clipper” sets sail with intriguing lot of vintage photos. Presented are (11) 1937-50 wire/press photos featuring beloved New York Yankees centerfielder Joe DiMaggio. Presenting in above average condition with light to moderate signs of wear this impressive array radiates excellent gloss while showcasing bold images captured by news service professionals. The cream of the crop is an Associated Press 9x7 photo taken at the 7/11/39 All-Star game with DiMaggio being congratulated by All-Star teammates Cronin, Feller and Foxx. More on our website.

All but one of the included photos rate in the (VG to VG-EX) range with to be expected sporadic surface wrinkling and occasional creases. The lone exception shows DiMaggio presenting a plaque to a nine-year-old boy. This photo rates in (GD) condition with heavy creasing along the left edge which has little impact on the subject images. Also present are a variety of individual portraits, multi-subject shots with teammates, coaches and children, DiMaggio’s locker and the “Joe DiMaggio Grotto” restaurant.
