The Jacques Laperriere Auction - Fall 2008
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 10/21/2008
Amazing early artwork portraying Brooklyn Dodgers hero Jackie Robinson, the first African-American player to break the major league color barrier. Jackie has signed this vintage scrapbook page in perfect, bold blue ink across his chest. A treat is the signed original art rendering of Robinson, a boyhood creation from Montreal-area artist Mac McDiarmid. It gets better! The back of the page holds another original artwork of deceased HOFer Bill Mosienko with his inscribed signature from 1949-50. Noted hockey artist Carleton “Mac” McDiarmid, is best known for his stunning collages from the Hockey Hall of Fame postcard set issued in the 1980s.
