phenomenal Jackie been looking to add one myself. Weird dynamic against the '48 Leaf. The '47 is the true rookie, better photo, much more aesthetically pleasing overall in my opinion - but much less popular and I've never really pegged why

Thank you! I agree with you on all your points , but after seeing how the portraits have been out pricing the 48 leaf feels like the hobby is getting on board with bonds bread

A 49 Leaf Jackie Robinson rookie card recently sold for 336k. I would say the Leaf is out pricing all of Jackie's other cards.

Well in low grade I should say ..which still shows people are realizing this is his true rc...but it would be fun to see what a psa 9 bonds would go for these days ( not sure if there is a 9 btw)

I don't think there's any question the Leaf card is far more valuable, and THE premiere Jackie issue, I've really just wondered about the "why"

Just 36 hours ago, I didn't know I needed this for my Dots Miller collection because I didn't know it existed. Thanks to some negotiating and overnight shipping, it now resides in the collection.

It is his Rookie Card, at least one of two along with the 1949 Bowman. It is also a very visually appealing card with brilliant colors. I also think the confusion of when it was issued, which Beckett listing it as a 48-49 card, drew collectors to it over a 49 Bowman which some incorrectly believed was issued a year later. The Bond Bread card is a black and white card, which are not popular with collectors, a regional, not a rookie card, and was unknown to a large portion of the hobby when collectors started persuing rookie cards. The Leaf became very popular in the 80s and that popularity continues today.

I think that the latter depends on your perspective, since it isn't really a rookie. Things tend to change over time. It wasn't that long ago that Cobb's 1907 postcards weren't considered his rookie cards, Beckett listed the '33 Goudey Ruth as his rookie, and the R314 DiMag used to be considered one of his rookie cards, rather than a 1937 instead of a 1936 issue. Personally, I'll take the earlier, rarer ones every time. And by the way, regionals are in no way disqualified from rookie status.

Best to all,

Larry
