Default Joe D. : vintage vs. retirement autograph

Posted By: Ed

My father, as a teen in the 40's, went to a lot of Yankees games. I recently found in his book collection, "Proud to be a Yankee", by DiMaggio, signed in the 40's. The signature looks slightly different than his retirement signatures, which I know exist in abundance. Still, the familiar dot over the "o" is present, and there is no reason for me to doubt its authenticity. Is there any premium on Joe D. autographs that were signed when he was actually playing?
