Jackie Robinson Business Card
I picked this up from ebay for $2. Figured it was a fun item if it is legit, and I'd only be out a couple bucks if it wasn't.

I'd like a little more to go on than that. Can anyone offer further info about these? Thanks. |
They're legit. Many of these have been auctioned off, sometimes in lots of a few hundred at a time, so they're not at all rare. Still a cool Robinson item.
The address is for a men's clothing store that Robinson opened in Harlem in 1952. The store closed in 1958. |
Thanks!
