Magazine, "Our Sports, The Negro's Own Sports Magazine," May 1953

This magazine, billed as the "Negro's Own Sports Magazine," ran for five issues in 1953. Jackie Robinson, the first African American to play major league baseball, was ostensibly the editor. At this time, African-American athletes were becoming involved in every major spectator sport. The cover features Larry Doby, who, in 1947, became the first African-American player to integrate baseball's American League.
