1993 Pinnacle Joe DiMaggio

Description

1993 Pinnacle Joe DiMaggio is a 30-card boxed set commemorating the life and career of Joe DiMaggio. Production was limited to 209,000 sets, with each set packaged in a black and gold collector's tin. While the outside of the tin states that 200,000 sets were produced, the certificate of authenticity included in the set carries the set's serial number to 209,000. Each tin also includes a lenticular lens that allows the anti-counterfeit "bar code" to be read.

Joe DiMaggio autographed 9000 cards for this set, and were randomly inserted into sets.
