Just about everything Joe DiMaggio did on the baseball diamond was seemingly without effort. Joltin' Joe just had an innate ability to run, catch and hit without breaking a sweat. The sweet swing that made DiMaggio's accomplishments at the plate so legendary is depicted here in this original Joseph Litz painting, flawlessly signed "Best Always Joe DiMaggio." DiMaggio, and the bat in particular, appear to jump right off the canvas of the painting, which reads "The Yankee Clipper" at the bottom center. The painting is matted inside a wooden frame that measures 33-1/2" x 27-1/2" and grades EX-MT. The autograph comes with a letter from PSA/DNA.
