Happy Father's Day!

I hope everyone out there is having a great Father's Day! I am looking forward to having lunch with my dad and several of my siblings and then watching the Suns vs. Clippers in the Western Conference Finals. Go Suns!

In addition to the card show yesterday I stopped by a card shop that was only about a mile away from the show. I'm glad I did.

I've mentioned it before, but this particular shop, The Batter's Box, is always buying collections and so they put out new stuff all the time. They price things reasonably, so stuff usually doesn't last long. I've learned the hard way that if I see something I want I need to get it quickly, before it's gone.

Such was the case yesterday with this particular item. 

I've had a Joe DiMaggio autograph before. I bought a box on eBay back in 2002 and pulled it from there. I sold it for $1000 to help me buy my first car. I regret it. So when I saw this at the card shop I splurged and got it knowing if I hesitated it would be gone. So I got it as a Father's Day gift for myself. 

While I wish it was signed on the front, I am happy with it for the price that I paid considering that it has been authenticated by PSA. I got it for $125, which I think is a fair price.

Hope everyone out there has a great Father's Day! Maybe you got something card related from a loved one, or maybe you got yourself something like I did. Let me know below.
