Joltin' Joe with his Philco
#5

Back when the Yanks were a force t be reckoned with.

Little known fact: Joe did not like to sign things, grudgingly did balls, and rarely did bats.

When I was in a prolonged stay at the hospital many years ago, one of the Docs there was a major baseball fan. When he found out that I played in the minors 3 yrs between tours in USMC, he came to my room with his collection of cards, balls, and bats. He had a rarer than hens teeth genuine Joe DiMaggio signed bat. He had an amazing collection that was directly responsible for me being moved to a single-patient room in spinal-cord injury rehab because the Doc and I stayed up yapping about baseball until 4AM, keeping my roomate up nearly the entire time.
