Question for Joe DiMaggio experts

Hello - I have a question about Joe DiMaggio and his lawyer Morris Engelberg. Apparently he was very close to him in his later years and also had him sign tons of stuff right up until his death. Right after he died, I bought a signed baseball from Mr. Engleberg and was wondering if there has been anything said about the items he was selling, good or bad. I always wondered whether to trust what he sold me. I havent had it certified and unfort I lost all the paperwork about 10 years ago. Anyone hear of anything?

I'm not aware of any problems with memorabilia sold by Morris Engelberg. There is a big problem with Ralph Perullo, who purchased most of the autographs and memorabilia from the Joe DiMaggio estate, as well as use of the name Joe DiMaggio Estate for marketing purposes. He's been selling HOFer baseball forgeries for years through it. He now goes by the name of memorabiliacenter.com.
