Jackie Robinson 70th anniversary auction to benefit JRF ending April 29
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 4/30/2017
Graded EX+ 5.5 by BGS. This is one of five examples at its tier (with six graded higher) among a total of 126 copies recorded in BGS's census reporting. This early Bowman collectible commemorates Jackie’s MVP campaign of the previous year, during which he led the National League with a .342 batting average and an impressive total of 124 RBI. The striking Robinson memento, seen here, forms an exquisite surrounding for the lush colors and vivid detail apparent in its cardfront painting. The offered example features a charming photograph of this legend, while technical faults are limited to minor toning and light rounding at its corners. Excellent-plus condition.
