Jackie Robinson Appraisal

Jackie Robinson Golden Moments Baseball Card

This item is a modern baseball trading card featuring a black-and-white portrayal of Jackie Robinson. The card is encased within a protective, rigid plastic top-loader for preservation. The primary image is a grayscale photograph of Robinson wearing a baseball cap with a 'B' emblem and a 'Dodgers' jersey. The card's aesthetic includes a dark green border that frames the central image, highlighted by a thin gold-colored line along the inner edge of the border. On the left side, vertically oriented, the words 'GOLDEN MOMENTS' are printed in gold lettering. The bottom portion of the card features a dark-colored band with 'Jackie ROBINSON' printed in gold, along with a small, stylized Dodgers logo in the lower left corner. In the upper right corner, there appears to be a smaller gold-colored emblem or intricate design, possibly indicating a series or manufacturer's mark, though it's not clearly discernible. The card material itself appears to be standard cardstock, but with a glossy finish to the surface. The visible condition suggests it is well-preserved, likely due to being housed in the plastic protector, showing no obvious major creases, tears, or significant edge wear. The corners appear relatively sharp through the plastic. This card belongs to a series commemorating significant figures or events, as indicated by the 'Golden Moments' inscription. Given the design and protective casing, it is part of a collectible series, likely produced several decades after Robinson's playing career, fitting into a retro or commemorative style period.
