1941 Play Ball ⭐ The DiMaggio Brothers
1941 Play Ball #61, Vince DiMaggio (PSA 4) - The superstar and Pop Icon.

1941 Play Ball #71, Joe DiMaggio (SGC 1) - The Boston Red Sox star.

1941 Play Ball #63, Dom DiMaggio (BVG 4.5) - 3x All-Star and legitimate power hitter.
BTW: I'm an equal opportunity and diversity freak when it comes to slabs.
This three-card DiMaggio family collection tells a story that can only be told by the 1941 Play Ball set.
Why?
The 1941 Play Ball set is widely recognized as the only major contemporary baseball card set issued during their playing careers that includes Joe, Dom, and Vince DiMaggio on individual cards in the same set.
The set was released immediately before America entered World War II.

After Pearl Harbor, baseball card production largely disappeared until the post-war era. As a result, 1941 Play Ball is often viewed as the last great pre-war gum set and the only Play Ball set featuring color cards.

My vintage card of the week: The 1941 Play Ball Jimmie Foxx. This was the first 1940s card I acquired. Found it at my local card shop, which has a really great vintage selection, especially for a shop in a small town. The artwork immediately caught my eye. Just gorgeous colors that make the card a pleasure to look at. And Foxx was an absolute stud: 3X MVP; triple-crown winner; 534 career HR; and a cartoonish career OPS of 1.038.

1941 Play Ball #71, Joe DiMaggio 💣
This is a card, with which, I will never part.
I remember the excitement the first time I held this card. Big Smile!😁
Have a great day friends and card folk!

1941 Play Ball #71, Joe DiMaggio ⭐ Legendary Hall of Famer and American Cultural Icon
Nothing is more important than a man's word. A man's word is his bond.
In 1977, Joe DiMaggio was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom by President Gerald R. Ford for Joe's extraordinary contributions both on the baseball field and as a patriotic figure, including his WWII service and philanthropy.

This is my only Play Ball card. I picked it up at a show earlier this month - loved the look of it, beautiful colors, especially the blue sky in the background.

Milnar was part of Cleveland's rotation for a few years and made the all-star team in 1940, going 18-10 with a 3.27 ERA. Bob Feller described the big lefty as a "good guy in the clubhouse" and a "happy person".
