1950 Bowman Jackie Robinson, card #22, signed by Robinson on the front. Robinson has beautifully inscribed the card in blue ink (grading "10"), "Best Wishes/Jackie Robinson." Vintage signed cards of Jackie Robinson dating from his playing career are extremely rare and this is the first signed 1950 Bowman example REA has ever had the privilege of offering. This is also the earliest Jackie Robinson autographed baseball card we have ever offered and, given the combination of its exceptional graphics and flawless signature, one of the finest such examples as well. The card itself has a little corner wear and is in Very Good to Excellent condition. Full LOA from James Spence/JSA. Reserve $500. Estimate $1,000++. SOLD FOR $2,133
