Bobby Morgan’s 1952 Brooklyn Dodgers Jersey: A Piece of Baseball History

A Glimpse into the Past

In the annals of baseball history, few teams are as storied as the Brooklyn Dodgers. Among the players who donned the iconic blue and white was Bobby Morgan, originally seen as the successor to the legendary Pee Wee Reese. However, due to Reese’s enduring career, Morgan served as a valuable utility infielder from 1950 to 1953. This particular jersey, a relic from 1952, offers a tangible connection to that era, embodying the spirit and tradition of the Dodgers.

Details of the Jersey

The jersey is a testament to the craftsmanship of its time. Inside the back collar, the “Rawlings” tag is prominently displayed, accompanied by an additional tag indicating the jersey size “42.” On the front left tail, “R. Morgan 52” is elegantly embroidered in blue thread, a personal touch that adds to its uniqueness. Across the front, “Dodgers” is emblazoned in blue felt, with a restored line under “DO” that speaks to its preservation. Below, the player number “2” is featured in red felt, while the back showcases the same number in blue felt.
