1994 Joe DiMaggio New York Yankees Carlo Beninato Serigraph Print Signed by DiMaggio in Perfect Gold Paint Pen 4/10 Vaulted Until 2006 With Photo From Signing

Joe DiMaggio is featured with a little futuristic twist on this massive 19 1/2" x 28 1/2" Carlo Beninato serigraph. According to the LOA which will attend and serve as authenticity, DiMaggio signed only 10 of these foil serigraphs Feb. 1, 1994. The renderings were then vaulted until 2006. The LOA, signed by Jerry Romolt, states this is 4/10 and was indeed signed by DiMaggio.

Framed, the offered beauty measures a healthy 28 1/2" x 38 1/2". The enduring image of DiMaggio on his follow-through is captured with a little modern edge. Gold, blue and a little red foil is sprinkled into this masterpiece.

DiMaggio boldly signed the front in gold paint pen. The Beninato countered with a black felt tip penning. "HC PPG 4/10" is also scribed on front.

Overall, one of the finest DiMaggio creations to hit the open market.
