[Dewey2007]

I picked up this July 14, 1933 SF Seals ticket stub in the recent Mears Auction. This is the game that an 18-year old Joe DiMaggio got a hit in his 50th straight game to break the PCL hit streak record. He would go on to hit in 61 straight games that season. I thought it was a pretty cool Joe DiMaggio related ticket from the hit streak before the hit streak. Seems like it was pretty common for his last name to get misspelled that year. Even the watch the Mayor of SF game him had his name spelled DeMaggio.

From what I could gather this ticket stub was part of a pair of stubs from this game that originated from the DiMaggio family collection and sold by Hunt Auctions in 2006. Another ticket from this game was sold in a separate lot in the same auction and those are the only 3 tix that have surfaced from this particular game.
