Fascinating file of (7) photographs form the man who caught Roger Maris' 61st home run baseball. Durante is shown: with Maris holding up the ball and "61" jersey, the two holding the baseball together, catching the ball in the stands, Durante uses the $5000 he gets from the baseball to buy a house and get married (2), drops baseball dropped form a plane at the 1962 Seattle World’s Fair losing a chance at $1,000 (2. Interesting parallels to the Binds 72 home run baseball debacle. Some with publishing marks o/w EX+. Average 7x9".
