JACKIE ROBINSON Breaks Color Barrier 1st NEGRO Brooklyn Dodgers 1946 Newspaper

Description: JACKIE ROBINSON Breaks Color Barrier 1st NEGRO Brooklyn Dodgers 1946 Newspaper Offered is an original, collectible newspaper (NOT a copy/reproduction): THE NEW YORK TIMES, March 18, 1946  * Jackie Robinson breaks the color barrier * Organized professional baseball 1st Negro Although Jackie Robinson was the first African-American to play a major league game in 1947, he had already broken another significant color barrier the year prior as a member of the Montreal Royals, the AAA farm team of the Dodgers. As noted in Wikipedia: "Robinson made his Royals debut at Daytona Beach's City Island Ballpark on March 17, 1946, in an exhibition game against the team's parent club, the Dodgers. Robinson thus simultaneously became the first black player to openly play for a minor league team and against a major league team since the de facto baseball color line had been implemented in the 1880s." The report of this game appears in the sports section on page 16, with one column heading: "Dodgers Conquer Montreal By 7-2" "Walter Triples With Bases Loaded in First--Robinson, Negro Star, in Action" and box scores. (see images). A very significant event not only in the world of sports but in the history of integration in American society. Complete in 38 pages, light toning and a little wear at the margins, generally in nice condition. Please Note: All of our offerings are 100% authentic! We do not offer reprints or reproductions of any kind. They are guaranteed to be original! Links to Archival Storage Options & Certificates of Authenticity Are Below! Historical reports may be beautiful or ugly, but they are always informative. While we rejoice in the beautiful (heroic, discovery, amazing feats, etc.), we at Historys Newsstand also offer "the ugly" for we are determined to learn from the wrongs of the past - understanding, to do so, we must be willing to look these wrongs directly in the face and shout "NO MORE!". It is for this reason many Black Americans collect historic slave ads, Jews collect reports regarding the Holocaust, women collect coverage of the Womens Suffrage Movement, etc.. If you find any to be offensive, we agree! Hopefully this is an indication we are moving in the right direction. Domestic Shipping Policy... For this specific item, A U.S. winner pays $10.00 S&H.
