Jackie Robinson Retires 1957 The Sporting News 01/16/57 TSN

Description: Jackie Robinson 1957 The Sporting News 01/16/57 TSN The Sporting News is the first and foremost publication that is referred to by baseball historians when engaged in research. Old issues of TSN before 1980 (and especially before 1970) are recognized as the most comprehensive and historically accurate chronicle pertaining to baseball history. From its beginning in 1886 through the early 1960's, TSN content was solely baseball and each issue year-round was a treasure that carried every tidbit of baseball news, editorials, anecdotes, and gossip as well as special features on players, and executives who were creating all the excitement of the time. Each issue was loaded with photos and caricatures done by cartoonist such as Willard Mullen. They were so skilled at their craft that their drawings were so vivid that they made their subjects look more like themselves than actual photos. Each issue during the season carried every box score and a synopsis of every major league game played during the preceding week as well as up-to-date seasonal stats of all players. In short, each issue of TSN fully documented every aspect of the game in a neat seven day time capsule that is forever frozen in the march of time. It is no wonder at all that during the Spinks family regime from 1886 through the 1970’s, The Sporting News was widely known as THE BIBLE OF BASEBALL. Every issue of the sporting news from 1886 through the November 23, 1963 edition carried the slogan: THE BASE BALL PAPER OF THE WORLD right below the logo.
