Dean injured his toe during the 1937 All Star game.

He was out of the game after he turned 31 (1941), only to return for one game for the Browns in 1947.

Dizzy Dean signed memorabilia can be very expensive. Signed post cards are selling for around $300.00 while signed baseballs can go anywhere from around $800 to $5,000.
