Shaun, that first pic looks like Thor's hammer made of Jackie cards. Fun to see.

And Ian, I bow to you from my recliner! :D

X2.

I just watched this episode this evening. The seller wanted $42,000 but the guy they brought in said they were worth $6,000.
The episode I watched read it was from 2019 so pre-covid.

Hi Dave

Sure was a nice 1-2 punch to start the game. Most remember Jackie as the 2nd Baseman for the Dodgers.
But, he played at 1st base for the entire 1947 season. Eddie Stanky was the Dodgers 2nd Baseman in '47.

Small Traditions did a nice write-up about this issue, which I will quote from to explain it:

"Even more obscure than the Bond Bread Exhibits ... is a fourth and final version, referred to as the 1947 Bond Bread Dual Sided or Perforated set. Virtually nothing is known about this set other than that it was issued in at least two different 24-card perforated panels by a company called Elgee. To call them scarce, even extraordinarily scarce, is a gross understatement. Until Small Traditions graded the [PSA 5] Robinson offered in this lot, only one other had ever been recognized by each PSA and SGC."

I've done a lot of research on "Elgee" and come up with squat from the pertinent era. About all I can say is that there are three known examples of the card, one SGC and two PSA, and perhaps some raw ones tucked away in collections that haven't seen the light of day. The only remaining research to do is to figure out whether the card was issued in 1947 or later. The ballplayers in the set are not helpful in that regard thus far, so I will probably have to start searching for source materials for the movie stars and try to see if any of them would make 1947 an anachronism.

Never seen that card before, Adam. Super cool.

'53 Dodgers were the winningest NL team of all time until the 2020 Dodgers. On their way to another World Series showdown with the Yanks, they beat the Giants in September, but lost an all-star in Carl Furillo. He got into a fight with Leo Durocher, the new Giants manager, and broke his hand. Missed the postseason where the Dodgers again lost to the Yankees.

The Brawl. Jackie scoring last run of that game. And a stub.

Brett, I’m loving your Jackie collection. That is a beautiful ’53. Has anyone else noticed the blue mark in the sky next to Jackie’s hat on the ‘53? When I first got mine in hand I thought it was a pen mark. I wonder if it was a stray mark from the painter’s brush on the original or a printing mark on the card. Has anyone seen a picture of the original painting? I know it was auctioned off with a bunch of the other ‘53 paintings in the 80’s, but I’ve never seen a picture of the actual painting.

Dewey 03-18-2021 08:11 PM

Thanks, Aaron.

Funny you mention it. I had the same experience with that mark!

This day in Dodgers history. 3/22/53

A spring training shot of Jackie and Billy Cox. The slug suggests Cox may be traded. He played two more seasons. And had one whale of a '53 World Series.
