1947 Dodgers Jackie Robinson Debut Press Pass – PSA

Quite a season it was, 1947. The Brooklyn Dodgers had emerged from the war with a positively dynamic nine. With the notable exception of Pee Wee Reese, these Dodgers were composed of basically new faces – a remodeled roster from the one that won the pennant just before Pearl Harbor. In 1947, youngsters Branca, Hodges and Furillo thrilled the nearly two million fans who clicked Ebbets Field’s turnstiles. The real sensations of that season, however, were the 20-year-old rookie phenom Duke Snider, along with the grand milestone of the game, Jackie Robinson. The latter, of course, was the standard bearer who dissolved baseball’s color barrier, and it was Robinson who also registered numbers that season to earn the National League’s MVP. Did we mention, the Dodgers won the pennant in ’47…? They did, and presented from that season in which both Robinson and Snider had his debut is this Brooklyn Dodgers Clubhouse Pass for Baseball Writers (press pass) at Ebbets Field. It was encapsulated and authenticated by PSA as PR 1 due to heavy creasing. Of note, the verso has glue residue from previous display.
