Baseball Negro Leagues. Autograph Letter SIGNED with Baseball content and original unsigned photograph, 4to, New York, Aug. 28, 1942

Robinson was a baseball fan, cofounder of the New York Black Yankees ball team which played in the Negro National League between 1936 and 1948. Co-founded by Robinson as the Harlem Black Bombers, the team adopted the name Black Yankees in 1936. It wasn't until 1948 that Major League Baseball was officially desegregated. The photograph Robinson mentions in this letter measures 3 1/4 x 4 1/2 inches and shows the famed dancer possibly dancing up the steps from the dugout. The dugout may be that of the Black Yankees. He thanks his correspondent for the photo. "I shall keep it for my private album - Well it looks as if we will have the World's Series right here again. Do hope I can be near enough to see one or two games...." He signs, "'Copesetically' Bill Robinson." With printed personalized transmittal envelope. Scarce. The third game of the 1942 National Negro Leagues World Series was played in Yankee Stadium between the Kansas City Monarchs and the Homestead Grays. Autograph

Description:
[Vernon, California?]: Pacific Coast League, 1911. Softcover. Very Good. Octavo. [8]pp. Stapled wrappers. One horizontal fold, the front wrap age-toned, some marginal tears on a couple of pages, very good. Program for a game between the Vernon Tigers of Vernon, California, and the Los Angeles Angels. The program features photos of several players, center score card/roster pages with pre-printed players' names, ballpark rules: "Bottle and cushion throwing prohibited," and some amusing baseball related advertising. Founded in 1903, the PCL was the highest level of western baseball until the Dodgers and Giants moved to California in the 1950s. Vernon was one of only two cities in Los Angeles County that was "wet," and with alcoholic beverages as an attraction, the Tigers attracted big crowds by the standards of the day. They weren't bad either, winning three pennants during their 17-year history. Very early memorabilia from the PCL is scarce.

A modest stain on the rear board else near fine in an attractive, very good or better dustwrapper with a small corresponding stain on the rear panel and a couple of tiny nicks at the crown. Inscribed by the author: "To John Orban with best wishes of Freddy and Walter R. Brooks." Our favorite title among the highly collectible series of books about Freddy, an intelligent pig-detective. Freddy is embroiled in the search for six missing Martians who are being forced to travel the country as a barnstorming baseball team. A significant highspot in porcine-detective literature, and exceptionally scarce signed.
