Classic 1941 Joe DiMaggio & Ted Williams PSA Type 1 Encapsulated Associated Press Photo – Measures Approx. 9" x 7"
1941 JOLTIN' JOE & THE KID!!! This extremely historical PSA Type 1 Associated Press image portrays Joe DiMaggio and Ted Williams at Yankee Stadium during their momentous 1941 campaign. Indeed, it would be that legendary season that the Yankee Clipper would hit in an unprecedented 56 consecutive games, a record that may never be broken. If that incomparable feat wasn't enough to whet the appetite of a seemingly infinite number of baseball attics, Boston's Ted Williams ended the season with an incredible .406 average, belting six hits in eight at-bats on the final day of the season to become the last MLB player to ever achieve the exalted .400 mark. Joltin' Joe would not only win the AL MVP Award, but his Bronx Bombers would also win the 1941 World Series, besting Brooklyn in five games. Measuring 9" x 7", the captivating image could make anyone skip a beat, with The Kid and Joe D grasping a bat. Crystal-clear clarity steals the show, with a few miniscule pinholes at the upper border not compromising the hallowed central image that turns back the clock to a year when these two baseball immortals turned the baseball world upside down!
