Large 1956 photograph of Jackie Robinson and his wife Rachel taken as the two were vacationing in Hawaii shortly after their loss to the Yankees in the World Series. She is reading a copy of the Sporting News while Jackie looks like he does not want to care but is pulled into the action by what was written, probably about him. From the archives of the Sporting News, this is a high grade example that is almost certainly the only example out there.
