Get time on your side, with this history making magazine. Jackie Robinson made history when he became the first African-American to cross baseball's color line on 4/15/47. As his magnificent rookie campaign was nearing the finish line, Robinson made his first appearance on the cover of a magazine, with this 9/22/47 edition of Time. Encapsulated by CGC with a grade of (9.6) and an "Off-White to White Pages" notation, this well-preserved publication is a strong survivor, that ranks as "1/1" at this level, with just 2 higher, out of a total CGC graded population of 29 examples.

Opening Bid $300.
