Here's my 1947 Jackie Robinson Pinback with original Ribbons & Charms. I understand this is a tough pin to find, got lucky and found it on ebay some years ago. Here's the description I put together for this pin:

"Recognized as one of the two toughest Robinson pinbacks to locate, this example features Jackie in his Kansas City Monarchs Uniform from 1945. The Monarchs logo was removed from the photo and the team name "Dodgers" was later added to the pin. This pin is not only from Jackie's rookie year, it pre-dates his pins wearing a Dodger uniform."
