The 1956 season marked Doby's first outside of Cleveland, having been traded to the Chicago White Sox in the off-season. Here, his portrait still has him in his Indians cap, but the batting stance pose in the background shows him in Chicago's flannels. A perennial All-Star and two-time league leader in home runs, Doby had broken the American League's color barrier in 1947, just months after Jackie Robinson did the same in the NL. Featuring nice edges, sharp corners, and vibrant imagery of the Hall of Fame outfielder, this is a stunning MINT 9 card with none graded higher by PSA.
