    Heartwarming DiMaggio Find

    My father passed away last year it was time to go through some of his things. In a box, deep in a closet, was the following: an 8x10 signed photo of DiMaggio, 2 photos from the signing (that I forgot I took), the card show auto ticket, and ever being the accountant a receipt from the Verrazano Bridge going from Brooklyn to New Jersey. I believe a Joe D fingerprint is possibly present. In a hobby where once trusted authentication services can sometimes prove inaccurate, I like this one the best

              Nice! Back in the good old days you can take a photo for free. Now there are photo ops for a fee
