Directly from the family estate collection of Barney Stein comes this high-quality original photo of Jackie Robinson in his Montreal Royals uniform alonside Team President Hector Racine in 1946. Snapped within a year of Robinson breaking baseball's color barrier for the Brooklyn Dodgers, the crystal-clear image captures the two men seated on a bench having a personal moment and shaking hands, with Jackie holding his glove in his other hand.
This pristine black and white original photo was printed off the original negative from the famous Dodgers photographer's camera many years later. The reverse has a Barney Stein stamp. It comes with letters from PSA/DNA (Type 2) and Barney Stein's daughter.
