THE JACKIE ROBINSON FOUNDATION COLLECTION OF NEW YORK YANKEES GAME WORN “JACKIE ROBINSON DAY” #42 JERSEYS
SCP Auctions is proud to present a collection of 41 game-worn “Jackie Robinson Day” Major League Baseball jerseys from the New York Yankees. The No. 42 jerseys represent the MLB seasons from 2009 to 2014 and include a total of 35 past and present Yankees players who competed on Jackie Robinson Day (April 15) during any of those six different years. Jackie Robinson Day is a traditional event which occurs every year in MLB ballparks across North America to commemorate and honor the day Robinson made his major league debut: April 15 1947. Initiated for the first time on April 15 2004 Jackie Robinson Day is a celebration of Robinson's debut with the Brooklyn Dodgers (now the Los Angeles Dodgers) that ended almost 80 years of baseball segregation. In acknowledging Robinson’s historic and heroic role in breaking baseball’s color barrier all players coaches and managers on both teams as well as the on-the-field umpires wear No. 42 jerseys on April 15th. Robinson’s number was retired in 1997 by Major League Baseball on the 50th anniversary of his extraordinary feat.
All 41 jerseys were consigned to SCP Auctions by the Jackie Robinson Foundation (JRF) a national not-for-profit organization founded in 1973 by Rachel Robinson (Jackie’s widow) as a vehicle to perpetuate the memory of Jackie Robinson through the advancement of higher education among underserved populations. A portion of the proceeds from the online auction will go toward benefitting the Jackie Robinson Foundation. For more information about the JRF visit www.jackierobinson.org.
This white button-down pinstripe jersey was worn by Yankees pitcher Ivan Nova as part of Major League Baseball’s honoring of Hall of Famer Jackie Robinson in 2011 when every MLB player would wear Robinson’s No. 42 in commemorating his historic breaking of baseball’s infamous color barrier in April of 1947. The Yankees tangled with the Texas Rangers on the anniversary date April 15 2011 losing 5-3 in front of 40814 fans at Yankee Stadium with Nova earning the start and the loss on the day surrendering five runs in 4 1/3 innings pitched. The jersey sports the legendary Yankees pinstripes and Jackie Robinson’s famed No. 42 on the back with the Yankees’ interlocking “NY” logo on the left chest both in navy blue tackle twill. There is a tag with “Majestic Authentic Collection” on the front tail. There is an MLB authentication hologram that is affixed to the main Majestic tag; below that is a “2011” tag and a “48” tag indicating the year and size of the jersey plus two additional flag tags indicating Plus 1 inch on the sleeves and 2 inches on the body. There is a New York Yankees embroidered flag tag with Nova’s No. 47. The MLB logo on the back of the collar is embroidered in white silver and navy blue stitching. The jersey exhibits evidence of game use and is problem-free and without visible alteration of any description.
Comes with authentication by Major League Baseball (hologram # 483460 FJ) and a Letter of Authenticity from the Jackie Robinson Foundation.
