There's no doubt the couple's relationship was rocky, but it was 'Joltin' Joe' who organised the actress' funeral in 1962. ⠀ .⠀ Included in Home Plate: A Private Collection of Important Baseball Memorabilia is this poignant letter from Monroe signed 'Your wife (for life), Mrs J.P. DiMaggio', which the New York Yankees great carried in his wallet. Penned on the reverse side of a dry cleaning receipt, the letter was discovered within Joe DiMaggio's wallet, which contained other objects dating to 1954 — the year the couple was married. ⠀ .⠀ Monroe writes: 'Dear Joe, I know I was wrong! I acted the way I did and said the things I did because I was hurt —not because I meant them — and it was stupid of me to be hurt because actually there wasn't enough reason — in fact no reason at all. Please accept my apology and don't, don't, don't, don't be angry with your baby — she loves you. Lovingly, your wife (for life) Mrs. J.P. DiMaggio.'⠀ .⠀ Marilyn Monroe and Joe DiMaggio ''Flowers Around Neck'' Photograph, c. 1954.
