Lot 1570: Joe DiMaggio Chemical Bank Signed Credit Card

ITEM DESCRIPTION

 
Reserve: $200.00
Winning Bid: $221.24
Price Realized: $264.38
Auction Date:6/26/2005 9:00 PM EST

If Joe D earned the same reserve of credit that he did adulation throughout his life, he probably could have used this MasterCard to pay for a small country if he wanted to. The gold Chemical Bank plastic engraved "Joe DiMaggio" in black was used until its expiration date of 11/92 and is the first such card we've seen of DiMaggio's. DiMaggio's autograph on the signature line rates a 6-7 out of a possible 10. The card was either cut or broken in half and has been neatly pieced back together with tape to form a most unique reminder of the Yankee Clipper in his "golden" years. LOA.
