Dimaggio
I once met Joe Dimaggio at the Sun Times show. The person in line in front of me had a B/W photo signed by Ted Williams and Mickey Mantle and he needed Joe D. to complete the photo. He paid his $175.00 fee for a flat signature which he was charging at the time. He also had a long list of items stated that he would not sign. When this person got up to the front of the line....Dimaggio looked at the item said he wasn't signing it. When the person pointed out he had paid his money for a flat item and waited patiently in line for about a half an hour Dimaggio said something to the effect--I don't sign anything Mantle signed ahead of me. And that was that.
The guy had to get out of line....spend $10.00 for a baseball and then proceeded to get that signed instead. Nice--true story.
