Hi Shaun,
I am just now seeing this thread and went through everything – fantastic research. I’ve done some research into the Jackie Robinson Bond Bread cards and found some information that you may have found since your post, but if not, it may help. The Jackie Robinson portrait card was issued beginning in the summer of 1947 in Harlem through a campaign that spread to Baltimore, Philadelphia, Washington D.C. and Detroit.. A Bond Bread canvassing crew handed out these cards with a small package containing two slices of Bond Bread, the portrait card and coupons. Additionally, the General Baking Company sent this card to kids who wrote in and requested one. Further, you are correct about the erroneous date on the “At Home with Jackie Robinson” poster. This advertisement first appears in the late summer of 1948. Best, Zach |
