I learned about this card on Net54 about a year ago and had to have it — there was just something about one of the greatest all-around athletes in U.S. history selling cigs that reeled me in. I’m not a Brooklyn collector, but this is my favorite card.
Research conducted by Net54 members indicates that while this (and the other Old Gold Jackie) was released after the Bond Bread portrait, it did come out in the fall of 1947, making it a rookie year issue as well.
Getting the TPGs to recognize that ... well we know how they feel about correcting their mistakes.
