  • Joe Di Maggio's Mighty Swing
    Marilyn E. Jackler Memorial Collection of Tobacco Advertisements AC1224 Date: Theme: Athletic Endorsers Campaign: 28% less Nicotine Key phrase: “Joe Di Maggio’s mighty swing” Brand: Camel Company: RJ Reynolds Comment: Joe Di Maggio was Born November 25, 1914, the eighth of nine siblings, into a poor immigrant family from Italy. His father, Giuseppe, was a fisherman and expected the same of his five sons. Often called “lazy” and “good for nothing”, Joe Di Maggio proved his father wrong, first playing for the San Francisco Seals on October 1, 1932, rising out of poverty, and going on to become a three time MVP winner and thirteen time All-Star for the New York Yankees. Joltin’ Joe hit safely in 56 consecutive games in the 1941 season, a record still unmatched. Joe Di Maggio’s mighty swing was curtailed along with his American dream on October 14, 1998 by tobacco when he died following surgery for lung cancer.
