1949 Bowman #50 Jackie Robinson Bowman Rookie PSA 4 VG-EX
JACKIE BOWMAN ROOKIE!!!... This exalted PSA 4 Jackie Robinson '49 Bowman Rookie conjures up vivid memories of the iconic Jackie breaking the MLB color barrier on April 15, 1947. Little did Branch Rickey and Jackie Robinson realize their landmark 1947 signing would forever change America, and along with his inaugural 1947 Bond Bread portrait and 1948/'49 Leaf subjects, no issue is more prominent than an eye-pleasing 1949 Bowman keepsake. Robinson's classic portrait pose boasts fine resolution and contrast, with his bold blue Dodgers cap and robust red background stealing the show. No glaring surface flaws are evident, with even corner wear and a somewhat skewed image favoring the left edge preventing a higher assessment. A bona fide "keeper", any 1949 Bowman Jackie Robinson subject stands as an unwavering testament to his unparalleled legacy that will surely echo for eternity!
