Sep.19.15. Follow up with Joe D’Amico
Following up our interview with Joseph D’Amico last month, we had a chance to visit him at his office last night. As expected, the place was very well laid out and organized. The most striking feature was his impressive collection of sports memorabilia which stood beside his desk, all neatly arranged inside a specially designed glass case. Joe proudly talked on camera about the standout items in his collection, such as a baseball signed by Derek Jeter and a basketball signed by all the members of the USA Olympic Dream Team with Michael Jordan. This particular clip lasted more than 12 minutes, and we’re considering using a large part of it for the end title sequence of our documentary. A must-see for all sports lovers out there.
