One of the first cards my son took a liking to . He liked the 1953 topps archives
I pulled one day . So I got him the real thing . And then when I learned more about him I needed is rookie card . I love that he was from NJ . The fact that he should have been the first black player to break the color barrier but he was unainable . That's was all I needed to know . Last edited by Rookiemonster; 01-12-2016 at 07:57 PM. |

Very sad. I believe he was the last of the original nine Negro League Hall of Famers.
