The six issues feature various full-color portraits of Robinson on the front. The back covers feature portraits of Robinson on some, with others containing advertisements for Fawcett’s line of Jackie Robinson products.

This set of comic books is a throwback to the Golden Age of baseball, and would be an amazing addition to the collection of any Robinson fan.
