This one is not used for a card but what a work of Art; sporting 42 on his chest.. helmet in the air.. sliding into home at an camera angle I didn’t know was even allowed. Gorgeous IMO.

1947 Jackie Pins

[Jason19th]

In 1953 Jackie served as editor for Our Sports magazine. While it ran for only five issues it was not just some puff mag. It asked questions like willthere be a black manager and are the Yankees ever going to play a black player. This was big controversial stuff and this was when Jackie was an active player. Can you even imagine that today. The only parallel today would be if there was an active out gay player and mid career they put out a magazine wondering when the Tigers will accept a gay player. Amazing and overlooked

It still amazes me that they picked JR as the image for this piece (which I am glad they did).

A few Jackie's

[z28jd]

I don't have a scan, but I have a funny Jackie Robinson collecting story. Around 15 years ago, I was looking for something to collect, a set I could put together slowly on a budget. I was open to almost any era of collecting, just wanted to take my time and buy them slowly. I thought about it for a while and settled on the 1956 Topps set. I really liked the design, plus I bought a 1956 Topps Jackie Robinson just as a type card for Hall of Famers, so I had a nicer card from the set out of the way already.

I went to Ebay and bought some Pirates cards in a lot of maybe ten different ones. I'm a Pirates fan, so I was knocking them off first. Bought a Clemente off of Ebay as well. I then went to the Fort Washington show (may have been in Reading by then) and bought a small pile of semi-star cards and lower tier Hall of Famers.

After getting all of those cards from the show and in the mail, I then went to my safe to pull out my 1955 Topps Jackie Robinson. Yes, 1955 Topps. So basically, I started collecting the 1956 Topps set because I had a 1955 Topps Jackie Robinson.

Great story, and somewhat similar to my story, but my story is not as humorous. I have always preferred the aesthetics of the cards in the 1955 set (I find the white outlining around the players image to quite often be distracting in the 1956 set), but ended up collecting the 1956 set because I already had Jackie's 1956 card that I bought long ago as my Jackie Robinson representative in my collection.

Just stumbled on this one from eBay. Fragile condition but not often does a program from April 17th, 1947 come up for sale. Jackie Robinson’s first MLB hit (a bunt single to third) and Duke Snider’s MLB debut. Jackie’s debut on Opening Day drew about 26k, but the follow-up only had about 10k in attendance. Today is the 77th anniversary!

[doug.goodman]

There are two printings of his Baseball Magazine supplement, that I know of.

Doug

Make that three...

I believe the top one with the caption closer to the picture, and the J font that drops below the other letters to be the first printing in August 1951.

The middle one, with the "Large Name", to have been released in April 1952.

And the bottom one, with the caption very low to have come out in teh 1956 - 1957 time frame.

Still working on release dates.
