On April 15 1947 in one of the most anticipated events in baseball history Jackie Robinson donned his Brooklyn Dodger uniform trotted out to the field against the Boston Braves and in one fell swoop obliterated the color line that had barred black players from playing major league baseball. Much has been written about the impact of that day and Jackie's role in everything from sports in America to the dawning of the civil rights era but suffice it say that no single baseball player in our history had as much impact on our country and in our culture than Jackie Robinson. Commensurate with his place in history collector demand for Jackie Robinson single signed baseballs continues to escalate.
On the panel below the sweet spot of this Rawlings Official Little League baseball is the coveted "Best Wishes Jackie Robinson" salutation in 7/10 looking blue ball point pen. The ball itself has lightly toned over the years with scattered surface abrasions; however the overall eye appeal remains fairly strong. Excellent single signed baseball from the iconic Brooklyn Dodger Hall of Fame Legend.
