Jackie Robinson broke down barriers for thousands of black athletes to come, including his own son! The offered photo shows Jackie, now a full fledged star, showing the finer points of batting to his son. Taken by noted photographer Herbie Scharfman, this is a spectacular piece of American history with the national game of baseball as the perfect backdrop. Photo has been die-cut and made unique for publication and mounted (with most of the back still visible). A unique new discovery offered here for the first time ever.
