1938 Photograph of Hall of Famer Joe DiMaggio in uniform and choosing his bat in the dugout. One of his most famous images of the era, this is completely original and bold with some light creasing and editorial enhancements being the only flaws. Photo was glued to thicker board for publication at some point (likely in the 1940's to turn the image into a composite photo of DiMaggio) and some extra paper remains on the back, but the photo is completely vintage to 1938 and looks great.
