He is perhaps best known for his 56-game hitting streak May 15 – July 16, 1941, a record that still stands. DiMaggio was a three-time Most Valuable Player Award winner and an All-Star in each of his 13 seasons. During his tenure with the Yankees, the club won ten American League pennants and nine World Series championships. At the time of his retirement after the 1951 season, he ranked fifth in career home runs 361 and sixth in career slugging percentage 579. He was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1955, and was voted the sport’s greatest living player in a poll taken during the baseball centennial year of 1969. DiMaggio is widely known for his marriage and lifelong devotion to Marilyn Monroe. PHOTOGRAPH PROVENANCE: This is an actual vintage photograph produced by the press to promote movie star(s).
