Description: Joe DiMaggio auto. vintage style rookie replica jersey. Unique replica jersey was created with vintage materials in order to more accurately commemorate Joe DiMaggio's early career. Joe DiMaggio later signed the jersey in the collar for its former owner, noted collector Barry Halper. Created using a vintage flannel jersey from the period as a foundation, this jersey offers the true look and feel of a 1930s Yankees jersey. The New York lettering, number 9, and stitching in the collar were carefully applied to mimic DiMaggio's 1936 rookie road jersey. A vintage "Spalding" tag and size tag appear in the collar. "J DiMaggio" is chain-stitched in red directly to the right of the Spalding tag. The year, "36," is chain-stitched in red along the interior rear tail. Heavy to moderate wear is displayed throughout including a small hole in the rear tail. DiMaggio's signature in the collar rates 8-9 out of 10. Includes LOAs from PSA/DNA (full) and JSA: EXEstimated Price Range: ($750-$1,000)
