The Yankee Clipper was the idol of a generation of Americans in the 1930s and ‘40s when his stoic image was one of the symbols of calm confidence that guided the nation through the World War II and the postwar boom. This pin has a head shot of DiMaggio in his Yankee cap inside a green outer circle in which are the words "New York Yankees" and his name are written in white. The PM-10 1 3/4" pin is in good condition with some rusting on the back.
