Day 181 (June 29, 2020 – 181)
A newspaper type weekly reader called Senior, Vol. 9/Issue 3/June 29 – July 3, 1970 shows a couple of drawings of Brooks by Kersell. The article within the paper is called, “Cleaning Up Around Third”.

I might as well picture another newspaper type magazine that was put out by The Sun dated June 29, 1958. This is the Sunday Magazine and has Brooks, looking rather young and tough, on the cover (Man, I love the Bird on the sleeve). The article is called, “At Home with Brooks Robinson”. It has a couple of pictures inside that are early shots of Brooks. The magazine is in relatively poor condition, mostly my fault (don’t ask...), so hopefully one day I’ll find another in a bit better shape.
