Bright and beautiful collector-grade example of Robinson's desirable 1949 Bowman card, highlighted by its vibrant front image and well-printed back . Some consider this as his "rookie," a designation that competes with the 1949 Leaf and some lesser-known issues made in 1947. As Bowman's first color set, the 1949 cards focued on solid color backgrounds and essential uniform details, a contrast that works well for Jackie in particular.
This SGC VG 3 reflects slightly rounded corners and centering to the northwest. Inspection of the reverse shows surface creases at two corners, which explains its technical score. The front presents a strong image suitable for a higher grade, making this an extremely attractive specimen for VG.
