Thanks DD. That sure looks like Jackie at first and Junior Gilliam maybe? I wish it was sharper. It would have been a rare day at first for Jackie but that could be Gil, it just doesn't look like him to me. I could be very wrong though. My guess is that this was 1953.

I do, however, think it was 1955. The reason I say that is, while I am not 100% positive, I think the Schaefer Player Awards (posted on OUR Scoreboard) didn't start until 1955. c. |

Great photo of OUR DODGERS getting off TWA plane and being welcomed home by many Brooklyn fans, including OUR Dodger Sym-Phony. Judging by who is in the photo, I would say this had to be 1954.....

He left just before "The Boys of Summer" era and has all but faded from memory. Curious -- and sad -- that he's hardly ever mentioned anymore. Is it because he initially objected to Robinson joining the team (he later defended Jackie and gave him batting pointers)? How did "The People's Cherce" fall from grace? |
