    Stories and art by Don Newcombe and Charles Dexter. Fawcett followed up its Jackie Robinson comics with a one-shot based on the life of another pioneering Black baseball great, Don Newcombe.

The third Black pitcher to join the major leagues, Newcombe is later named Rookie of the Year. Includes a short message written by Newcombe himself. A Personal Message from Roy Campanella, Ace Backstop of the Brooklyn Dodgers; Roy Campanella, Baseball Hero. 32 pages, Full Color. Cover price $0.10.
