Joe Pepitone Hugging MantleMaris Horizontal BW 8x10 Photo (Signed in Silver)

When Joe Pepitone signed with the New York Yankees in 1962 the carefree fun loving first baseman spent his $20000 signing bonus on a fancy new car and a motorboat. After beating out Moose Skowron for the first base job the Yankees traded Skowron before the 1963 season. Pepitone responded by having the best year of his career as he hit .271 with 27 home r and 89 RBI that season. This Joe Pepitone autograph is guaranteed authentic and includes a Steiner Sports Certificate of Authenticity and an accompanying tamper-evident Steiner Hologram. The Steiner Seal Means Its Real. Steiner Sports is the Official Memorabilia Partner of the New York Yankees.
