Maybe a lot of sports fans became disillusioned when Kramer revealed that the Clipper dunks.

He was not a nice man and there doesn't seem to be a lot of collector warm fuzzies about him, which is a shame since he is a first tier HOFer.

I think it wasn't as much about him being not a nice person as it was that he was very quiet by nature. Then you add in all the people chasing him around all the time, and then he gets viewed more negatively if he doesn't respond.
I love Joe D., and it definitely (and unfortunately) helps me pick up stuff for my collection because you guys are right; he just doesn't get the love.
Last month, I picked up a game used bat, so that is my DiMaggio pinnacle right now.

Anyone that married Marilyn Monroe is a Hall of Famer in my book.

I have never heard this before. Joe was nothing but polite the times I saw him at card shows. This was a contrast to other big stars of the period who were often not. My wife was so impressed by Joe that she went out and bought me a 1938 Goudey DiMaggio.
