a complete run of jackie
behold! my latest jackie robinson acquisition - a 1953 topps card
which is also number 1 in the set
i've always liked this card, but only in reprint or virtual fashion, so to have one in my hands is pretty cool. i assume that the background is supposed to be some part of a stadium, but to me it seems more like the 'l' in chicago or some ancient roman aqueduct, had they made their aqueducts of metal. this was the card i targeted a while back that was sold with about 17 other cards from the 1950's, including that 1953 bowman color gil hodges i posted a couple of weeks back.
