Jackie Robinson's first contract with the Brooklyn Dodgers?

Well, if we distill down these 20 pages, seems like many of us keep circling back to the same few (historic) pieces related to Jackie Robinson, and his MLB debut (contract, uniform, etc). I guess we'll find out soon.

Greg, I just wrote the same thing to Peter yesterday in an email. The contract would be a remarkable item but I cannot wrap my head around it being a 10 million dollar item.

Maybe he's including the 2 figures AFTER the decimal point?

Uncut full T206 sheet with Wagner....
If you cut it down you have a '10'.

This might've been touched on, but I saw in a Heritage magazine that they're auctioning off Jackie's first jersey from his rookie year.

I changed my guess after Ken mentioned historical significance, and linked an article about the Jackie contract.

I bet its the pen he used to sign the contract and a branch from the original tree that became the contract.
