From A to Z: Talks about Jackie initially turning down an offer from a Brooklyn Bakery in May 1947. He would later go on to sign with the bakery that same month with the portrait card being distributed to store owners as a giveaway in July.

And finally, my set. I did have the Portrait, Glove in Air card in PSA 5 (highest graded at the time), as well as Fielding Ball in Glove in PSA 5, but sold both to a well-known collector (who eventually sold me the PSA 7 portrait after he acquired the PSA 8.5). The Portrait was the last card I obtained. The most difficult card to find when completing the set was the Throwing variation. I initially had purchased the card raw (graded authentic), and later upgraded to the 3.
