Eddie Robinson
GOD Bless Eddie Robinson's soul, and comfort his Family and friends.
As an avid Yankees fan in the 1950's, Eddie was one of my favorites. I saw him hit some long HR's deep into the Right-Center-Field seats (or upper deck) of Yankee Stadium. Here he is in the centerfold of the 2nd issue of Sports Illustrated (Aug 23, 1954).  TED Z T206 Reference .

RIP Eddie
I didn't realize how extensive his MLB career was as a player, manager and GM until I read his obituary. Quite a lengthy career. My only Eddie Robinson card. RIP.

For the occasion they had a limited amount of specially made Hartland statues available to have signed:

I echo the sentiments on this post. Since nobody seems to have mentioned it, over the last year Eddie has recorded a podcast sharing stories of his playing days. If you're not familiar with it, do yourselves a favor and seek out "The Golden Age of Baseball with Eddie Robinson"; you won't be disappointed.
