DESCRIPTION:
There's no doubt that Jackie Robinson was one of the most influential figures in MLB history. Not only did he break the color barrier by becoming the very first African American to play Major League Baseball in the modern era but he also earned a ton of accolades during his career with the Dodgers. Though he was honored with an MVP award a Rookie of the Year Award and an induction into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1962 his contribution to American society extended far beyond the realm of baseball. After his death in 1972 he was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom and the Congressional Gold Medal for his successes in the world of human rights as well as sports. Pay tribute to a great player and a hero of the Civil Rights era by sporting this Cooperstown Player Name and Number tee from Majestic. It features "Brooklyn" lettering across the chest along with Robinson's name and #42 on the back for a display of old-school baseball pride that will make any longtime fan reflect on Robinson's contributions to American culture as well as Major League Baseball.
