It was a testament to the extraordinary and well-deserved stature of Jackie Robinson in the early 1950’s that the eventual Hall of Famer has his own line of comic detailing the exploits of his fabled career. Offered here are four Jackie Robinson Baseball Hero, issues 1-4, with the 7-by-10 ¼-inch comic books presented in a condition that is much better than the magazines are typically found after enduring the youthful enthusiasm of eager readers. Volume No. 1 is in Good condition, with some light staining on the cover and a small pen mark, along with some small nicks on the edges; Volume No. 2 presents in Excellent condition but has some light staining, small nicks on the cover and a minor tear along the back cover. Volume No. 3 is also in Good condition, with some small nicks and tiny creases, and No. 4 presents Excellent but has a couple of small nicks and a minor crease on the cover.
