Joe DiMaggio played for the New York Yankees baseball team from 1936-1951.
He never played for a Chicago team, but is honored in this piazza in the Little Italy neighborhood of Chicago because he was born to Italian immigrants and the National Italian American Sports Hall of Fame museum is located across the street.
DiMaggio was nicknamed the "Yankee Clipper" by Yankee's stadium announcer Arch McDonald in 1939 when he likened DiMaggio's speed and range in the outfield to the then new Pan American airliner. (Wikipedia)

Biography
Early life and career
After moving with his family to Brooklyn, New York City, United States, as an infant, Kubert started drawing at an early age and was encouraged by his parents. In 1938, at age 11 1/2, he took the advice of a school friend related to comics publisher Louis Silberkleit, and visited the Manhattan office of Silberkleit's company MLJ Publications, the future Archie Comics. He was taken under the wing of kindly professionals Charles Biro, Mort Meskin, Bob Montana and Irv Novick, who after a few months let the promising 12-year-old artist ink some pages of the teen-humor comic book Archie, penciled by Montana.
Kubert attended Manhattan's High School of Music and Art, and after school and on weekends honed his craft at the quirkily named Harry "A" Chesler's studio, one of the comic-book "packagers" that had sprung up in the medium's early days to supply outsourced comics to publishers. Kubert's first professional job was penciling and inking the six-page story "Black-Out", starring the character Volton, in Holyoke Publishing's Catman Comics #8 (March 1942; also listed as vol. 2, #13). He would continuing drawing the feature for the next three isues, and was soon doing similar work for Fox Comics' Blue Beetle. Branching into additional art skills, he began coloring the Quality Comics reprints of future industry legend Will Eisner's The Spirit, a seven-page comics feature that as part of a newspaper Sunday-supplement.
1940s and '50s
Kubert's first work for DC Comics, where he would spend much of his career and produce some of his most notable art, was penciling and inking the 50-page "Seven Soldiers of Victory" superhero-team story in Leading Comics #8 (Fall 1943), published by a DC predecessor company, All-American Comics. Through the decade, Kubert's art would also appear in comics from Fiction House, Harvey Comics, but he was otherwise worked exclusively for All-American and DC.
In the 1950s, he became managing editor of St. John Publications, where he and the brothers Norman Maurer and Leonard Maurer produced the first 3-D comic books, starting with Three Dimension Comics #1 (Sept. 1953 oversize format, Oct. 1953 standard-size reprint), featuring Mighty Mouse. According to Kubert, it sold a remarkable 1.2 million copies at 25 cents apiece at a time when comics cost a dime.[1]
DC Comics and Sgt. Rock
Kubert served as DC Comics' director of publications from 1967-76, when he left to found the Joe Kubert School of Cartoon and Graphic Art in Dover, New Jersey. During his time with DC, Kubert initiated titles based on such Edgar Rice Burroughs properties as Tarzan and Korak. His own work on Tarzan, considered by comics historians to be a classic portrayal, is been collected by Dark Horse Comics in a hardcover book series, Much more about DC career TK
In 2006, Kubert wrote and drew "Sgt. Rock: The Prophecy", a six-issue miniseries.
Yaakov and Yosef
Kubert wrote and drew a collection of faith-based comic strips beginning in the late 1980s for Tzivos Hashem, the Lubavitch children's organization, and Moshiach Times magazine. The stories, "The Adventures of Yaakov and Yosef", were based on biblical references, but were not Bible stories. Many were based on stories of Chabad-Lubavitch Rebbes and disciples. [2]
Later career
PS Monthly (Feb. 2006). Cover art by Joe Kubert.
As of the mid-2000s, Kubert is the artist for PS Magazine, a U.S. military magazine, with comic-book elements, that stresses the importance of preventive maintenance of vehicles, arms, and other ordnance. (The name derives from its being a "postcript" to other, related publications.)
Kubert has drawn graphic novels, including Yossel: April 19, 1943 (2003) and Fax from Sarajevo (1996), the latter initially released as a 207-page hardcover book[3] and two years later as a 224-page trade paperback.[4] The non-fiction book originated as a series of faxes from European comics agent Ervin Rustemagic´ during the Serbian siege of Sarajevo. Rustemagic´ and his family, whose home and possessions in suburban Dobrinja were destroyed, spent two-and-a-half years in a ruined building, communicating with the outside world via fax when they could. Friend and client Kubert was one recipient. Collaborating long-distance, they collected Rustemagic´'s account of life during wartime, with Kubert and editor Bob Cooper turning the raw faxes into a somber comics tale.
Awards
Kubert's several awards and nominations include:
*the 1962 Alley Award for Best Single Comic Book Cover (The Brave and the Bold #42)
*a 1963 write-in Alley Award for "Artist Preferred on Sea Devils
*a special 1969 Alley Award "for the cinematic storytelling techniques and the exciting and dramatic style he has brought to the field of comic art"
*1974 and 1980 National Cartoonists Society Awards for best Story Comic Book, plus a 1997 nomination for Best Comic Book.
*The 1997 Eisner Award for "Best Graphic Album: New", for Fax from Sarajevo
*The 1997 Harvey Award for "Best Graphic Album of Original Work," for Fax from Sarajevo
Kubert was also a formally named finalist for induction into the Jack Kirby Hall of Fame in 1990, 1991, and 1992, and was inducted in 1997.

French postcard by Editions Cinémagazine, no. 118.
Joë Hamman [not to be confused with Joe Hamann] was the French equivalent of the cowboy in a long-ranging career from 1907 to 1967. He was also an affluent film director.
We generally associate the western with American cinema, but in the early years there were European westerns too. Joë Hamman was the epitome of the French western, often filmed in the Camargue, South of France. Joë Hamman aka Joe Hamman, originally Jean Hamman, was born in Paris, France, in 1883. His father was a Dutch expert in painting, his mother a former lady’s companion of empress Eugénie. Hamman studied in Paris and London before going to Art School in Paris. He became a drawer and a noted water colorist, but he chose a different career. When Jean was six, the circus of Buffalo Bill alias William Cody came to Paris, but young Hamman was not allowed to go. He had to wait until he was 21 and meet Cody, when in 1904 his father took him on a business trip to America. Hamman and Cody met privately, became friends, and Hamman visited Cody’s North Plate house in Nebraska, meeting the extras of Cody’s wild west show, and drawing watercolours for local rangers. At a ranch in Montana, Jean Hamman learned to ride, was engaged asa cowboy, and learned to break and gather horses. He also visited the Pine Ridge reservation in Dakota, and met Spotted Tail, war lieutenant of indian chief Red Cloud, who donated him a buckskin war costume. Autumn 1904 he returned to Paris to do his military service, during which he staged a coach attack. When in 1905 Cody’s circus came over, Hamman was invited to join and participated in the French tour of Buffalo Bill. And Jean became Joë Hamman.
In 1907 Hamman started out as both actor and director of Le desperado, followed by performances in some 40 other short westerns until early 1914, such as Un drame mexicain (1909), Un drame au Far West (1909), Les aventures de Buffalo Bill (1911), the tree-part sequel Le vautour de la Sierra (Victorine-Hipolyte Jasset 1909), and Le railway de la mort (Jean Durand 1912). While Le vautour de la Sierra was an Eclair production, most short westerns with Hamman were Gaumont westerns, often directed by Jean Durand, who from 1910 on specialised in the genre at Gaumont, though some were also shot by Léonce Perret. Often Hamman’s antagonist in the Gaumont westerns was the actor Gaston Modot, nowadays better known as comedian. In the mean time, Hamman also directed 10 early shorts himself, in different genres, such as L’ile d’épouvante/The Island of Terror (1911) and the western La ville souterraine/The Subterranean City (1913) for the Eclipse company.
During the First World War, his film acting and directing came to a halt. He only recontinued as actor in 1921 with Le gardian, an adventure short, directed by himself; Mireille (1922) a short by Ernest Servaes, L’étrange aventure (Hamman 1922), Tao (Gaston Ravel 1923) with other prewar actors such as comedian André Deed, and the drama Rouletabille chez les bohémiens (Henri Fescourt 1923). He had the male lead as Chevalier de Mallory in the costume drama L’enfant roi (Jean Kemm 1923), opposite Andrée Lionel as queen Marie Antoinette. In 1924 followed Le vert galant (René Leprince). Les fils du soleil (René le Somptier), and Le fils du stigmate (Louis Feuillade/Maurice Champreux 1924). After a break in 1925 followed six films in 1926: Sa petite (Routier-Fabre), Le capitaine Rascasse (Henri Desfontaines), La fille des pachas (Hamman, Adrien Caillard), Lady Harrington (Hewitt Claypoole Grantham-Hayes/ Fred LeRoy Granville), and Le berceau de Dieu (Fred LeRoy Granville), a religious drama starring Léon Mathot in which Hamman played a triple role of Abner, Pharao and Confucius. After another Granville film: Sous le ciel d’Orient (1927), opposite his old buddy Modot, Hamman ended his career in silent cinema with a bit part as Baskytt in Abel Gance's famous epic Napoléon (1927).
When sound cinema came in, Hamman had a comeback and leads in several French early sound films. He was Erlkönig in Marie-Louise Iribe’s homonymous film (1930-1931) after Goethe’s ballad and played in both the German version Erlkönig and the French version Le roi des aulnes. Hamman also had leads in Adieu les copains (Léo Joannon 1930), and the French version of Luis Trenker’s Berge in Flamme: Mont en flammes, for which Hamman was co-director too. After that his parts got smaller, in Je serai seule après minuit (Jacques de Baroncelli 1931), Romance à l’inconnue (René Barberis 1931), Danton (André Roubaud 1932), the Mistral-adaptation Mireille (René Gaveau 1933), Le train d’amour (Pierre Weil 1935), Le clown Bux (1935) in which Hamman was a cowboy once more, Notre-Dame d’amour (Pierre Caron 1936), Tamara la complaisante (Félix Gandéra, Jean Delannoy). In the late 1930s, Hamman played smaller parts in four films by Henri Fescourt: L’occident (1937), Bar du sud (1938), Vous seule que j’aime (1939), and the emblematically titled Face au destin (Fescourt 1940), as France had got involved in the Second World War but Hamman himself too faced destiny: no film roles during the war anymore. After the war, Hamman played in an uncredited role as general Kellermann in Sacha Guitry’s Napoléon (1955). His last performance was an uncredited part in Pop’game (Francis Leroi 1967). Joë Hamman died in Dieppe in 1974.

My 1985 G.I. Joe collection restored.
Image from the Marvel Comics 1986 G.I. Joe Yearbook #2 cover.
Masterpiece by Michael Golden.
I know that for many G.I. Joe fans 1985 was THE year. For me it began with frustration. Not only did the cartoon going on full time attracted more fans, but something was different. For the first time, the new animated mini-series, "The Revenge if Cobra", featured characters that had yet to be released. This made these new characters very popular prior to their arrival in stores. In the spring of 1985 the demand for these already endeared characters was ravenous. There were considerably more kids getting to the brand. This was very frustrating to those of us who’s collections started with straight arm figures. The 1985 line up did have some great figures. Flint, Lady Jaye, Snake Eyes V2, Dusty, Footloose, Heavy Metal, Eels, Snow Serpent, Lamprey, and the Twins are awesome designs but the bullpen had too many goof balls for my liking. That being said I do have many fond memories of hunting for and acquiring the 1985 GI Joe line up, one at a time on many trips to Toys R Us. And to cap it all off the Tactical Battle Platform was waiting for me under the Christmas tree that year.
This album was a long time in the making. I never had the Flagg. My own fault. Acquiring an unfamiliar play set that large with so many fragile pieces is as expensive as it is intimidating. The only thing that would ease my concern would have been a sealed Flagg. That ease would have been at a cost of great anxiety to my wallet. I’d never have the heart to open a sealed 1985 toy. With such a glaring missing piece from this year’s collection I turned my attention to other ventures. One day a unique opportunity presented itself. For half the going rate of a sealed aircraft carrier I found an open one for sale. A complete, mint, never assembled Flagg, with no yellowing and all of the parts bags sealed! The blue prints, unopened Keel Haul, file card, unused decals, and even the insert catalog were all accounted for. The only blemish was that the opened box had a superficial water stain and the megaphone was removed. The child sized accessory wasn’t anything that I felt my collection needed. This was exactly what I was looking for. The vehicle inside was just as good as a sealed one. With the centerpiece of the collection now on the table I dove back into the 1985 line up with renewed vigor! I hope you enjoy the photos within as much as I did restoring them all.
This will be the first of many albums going forward that I cannot claim is complete. The Sears exclusive Cobra CAT, SMS, reissued SNAKE armor in dark blue and Listen 'n Fun Tripwire are notably absent here. I have no recollection of them as a child but can assure you that I would have dismissed the strangely recolored toys. If I didn’t feel that the exclusives were important as a child then I don’t feel that they are important in my collection now. I hope you’ll appreciate the album despite the few missing items.
