Chace Verity @chaceverity.com · 16d Doing some research, came across a nice photo of Jackie Robinson shaking hands with George Shuba. Pretty radical photo, considering the times. From Pasadena Star News, April 24, 1946.

Wrote about this famous photo in my obituary of George (Shotgun) Shuba: benchedathletes.wordpress.com/2014/10/01/g...
oh, wow, it was REALLY radical "The moment was captured in a well-known photograph dubbed A Handshake for the Century for featuring the first interracial handshake in a professional baseball game." (from George Shuba's wiki page)
