About This Item

San Francisco, CA: Curteich- Chicago. Very Good+. 1940. Postcard. Color Illustrations; This is the deckle edge version of the postcard, with medium yellow background. The postcard is in Very Good+ condition and has no creasing or wrinkles. The reverse side is clean and unused. "After being processed on Ellis Island, Giuseppe worked his way across America, eventually settling near Rosalia's father in Pittsburg, California, on the east side of the San Francisco Bay Area. After four years, he earned enough money to send to Italy for Rosalia and their daughter, who was born after he had left for the United States. Giuseppe hoped that his five sons would become fishermen. DiMaggio recalled that he would do anything to get out of cleaning his father's boat, as the smell of dead fish nauseated him. Giuseppe called him "lazy" and "good-for-nothing." DiMaggio did not finish his education at Galileo High School and instead worked odd jobs including hawking newspapers, stacking boxes at a warehouse and working at an orange juice plant."
