1936 Exceptional rookie year image of young Hall of Famer Joe DiMaggio in uniform at Yankee Stadium. Issued by Underwood and Underwood and stamped on the back, the long paper caption notes the rookie had eclipsed Babe Ruth in popularity at Yankee Stadium with his sensational play! One of his better rookie images we have handled in some time and the first of this particular example we have offered. A nearly perfect image that is sure to skyrocket in value in the future when people start realizing how rare rookie year DiMaggio images are to find!
