Marvelous piece from near the end of World War II featuring the legendary Hall of Famer Dizzy Dean capturing the homespun charm of the Depression Era star who delighted subsequent generations with his outlandish modifications of the English language. The spirit of all that is encapsulated here in an elegantly matted and framed piece of Dizzy Dean Falstaff Brewing Corp. stationery. With official Falstaff letterhead atop the sheet and Ole Diz's handsome mug in the lower right-hand corner the letter to a fan in the Bronx thanks him for having asked Dizzy for an autograph. The 9/10 Dean signature at the end of the letter is as sensational as his truncated major league career with his swirling penmanship in classic form. The entire piece is matted and encased in an intricate wood frame to overall dimensions of 14-by-17 inches essentially problem free and included a felt back with stand.
