Mainly leaning towards 1947 WS, but didn't want to rule out his MLB debut, just yet.

Key clues, the red/white/blue decorative banner hanging on the Ebbets Field rails and the billboards...(Mainly the Coca Cola Classic ad).


Here's the snapshot





Does anyone have any pictures of Jackie Robinson or Ebbets Field during his MLB Debut 4/15/47? Or Ebbets Field in general from 1947? I don't know how often they switch out billboard ads, since that's a huge clue in time frame.
All I know is that it's not from opening day, Robinson wore a jersey with zipper on that date.

So, World Series is a definite possibility.
