It was the careful and unassailable planning of Branch Rickey that brought a 27-year-old Jackie Roosevelt Robinson to the Montreal Royals in the spring of 1946 as Rickey launched his "Great Experiment" that ultimately integrated Major League Baseball and changed the face of the game forever. The passage of many decades would ultimately reveal that Robinson's historic smashing of the despicable "color line" had ripple effects far beyond the baseball landscape, making it a moment of unmatched significance in the earliest years of the Civil Rights movement.
Offered is a beautiful autographed iteration of Jackie's 1954 Topps card. The card has a beautiful portrait image of Jackie with a smaller in action shot of him throwing the ball on the shoulder. Jackie has signed the bottom of the card in clean blue ballpoint pen with his signature "Best wishes" inscription. PSA/DNA deemed the penmanship to be a NM-MT 8, while PSA graded the card itself a GOOD 2. An amazing addition to any Jackie or autographed card collection.
