I only have a couple of vintage Jackie cards, so I figured today would be a good day to show my favorite again.
I hope all of you are staying smart and healthy. And here's to Jackie Robinson. May we all possess his courage in trying times.
Musing about my five collecting interests: All things Orioles and BALTIMORE Colts, 50's Baseball, team publications, Japanese cards and even some football and hockey. You might find some beautiful women, soccer stuff, presidential pins and life advice from time to time. I don't charge extra for any of those.

Jackie Robinson Day
Today is the anniversary of Jackie Robinson's big league debut in 1947. Under normal circumstances, the majors would be awash with players wearing #42 as a tribute to his courage.

Beautiful card. Hope you're enjoying your Jackie Robinson Day Commish!
ReplyDeleteI am, Mark, thanks. We are enjoying one of the five days a year that Houston has really beautiful weather. It simply can't be any nicer here. Sitting on my deck, watching the birds at our feeders and sipping coffee. Hope you are well.
DeleteAwesome. One of these days I'll pick up one of his cards but that day's a long way off.
ReplyDeleteSame! I need one for my HOF Binder, but a reprint will have to suffice for now.
