Important 1957 photograph of Jackie Robinson sitting alone with his trophies and awards after announcing his retirement from baseball, ten years after he became the most important player ever to suit up. The paper caption on the back refers to Robinson as "controversial" which is a nice way of saying that he rubbed some people the wrong way. Photo has a huge paper caption on the back from the Associated Press and in great shape overall, grading a perfect 10/10!
