1947 Jackie Robinson Uniform
Great photo and great thread. Sorry I am so to the party on this one. The zipper style, as pointed out earlier is from previous years, most likely 1946 and with a number change to 42. The 1947 Dodgers jersey would have likely been ordered in mid March, but remember that Robinson's contract was not announced as being purchased from Montreal until 10 April, a scant five days prior to the Opening Day. Hence the need to outfit him with something already on hand.
With respect to carry overs, my research indicates this was fair more common that folks might want to admit and these "carry over uniforms" were frequently part of the annual uniform inventory. When a team made the post season, this often added a fourth uniform to the inventory for a given season/calendar year. At times when I am researching a uniform for a client, they will insist they have a "photo match" (a phrase I detest by the way). I then ask them if they have accounted for and excluded the other uniforms the player might have worn during the season. The answer almost uniformly (no pun intended) comes back that they have not... Great photo and congratulations.. Dave Grob

Dude you can't have MLK, Hulk Hogan, and Jackie. Let us UCLA fans/Californians claim Jackie and we'll claim the bloated contract of Kanye West in the deal. We'll trade you back Mark McGwire and George Lucas.
