The story of Jackie Robinson and his courageous fight to integrate America’s Game has been told and retold so many times it has attained almost mythical status. We can talk about his baseball career: Rookie of the Year in 1947, NL MVP in 1949, six-time All-Star, two-time stolen base leader, but the story of Jackie Robinson is so much more than statistics and trophies. The implications of what Jackie Robinson accomplished in 1947 and continued to work for throughout the rest of his life, extended far beyond the baseball diamond – he made an entire nation reevaluate and change the way they thought about one another.

That’s why this isn’t just the single-signed ball signed by the 1947 Rookie of the Year and 1949 NL MVP. This is the single-signed ball of the man who helped create the modern United States. The 1960-1969 Reach Official American League Cronin baseball has been signed by Jackie Robinson on the side panel black pen. The ball shows light overall toning from age with some staining present on the panel adjacent to Jackie’s signature. When displayed with Robinson’s signature facing forward this light staining is not visible. A very attractive single-signed ball from the most courageous man to ever step foot on a baseball diamond and it comes with a LOA from PSA/DNA.
