Graded FR 1.5 by PSA. Hall of Famer, in his debut gum card appearance. Jackie Robinson was one of the most memorable figures ever associated with the game, and inspiring stories, in abundance, exist about all facets of Robinson's career. Accordingly, the great player's scarce rookie card is viewed as an important cornerstone in any accomplished card collection. Robinson's first card is among the key subjects in the intriguing baseball series produced by Leaf Gum Co. in 1948-49, a notably challenging post-war issue. The offered example of that seldom-seen treasure, an enticing piece compromised in grading terms by a small stain on the back and uniform corner rounding, will fit nicely into a nostalgic assembly. A significant, sought-after card, in respectable Fair condition.
