1949 Poignant photograph of a pensive Joe DiMaggio, sitting in the Yankee dugout and ready for action for the first time since a spring training injury knocked him out of the lineup. Despite nearing the end of his career, he was described on the back as the "brightest star of the N.Y. Yankee baseball constellation." Issued through the International News and stamped on the back with a full paper caption that notes the photographer as Herb Scharfman.
