Happy #LarryDoby Day! Sharing a thread of some of my mixed media artwork created to pay tribute to an underappreciated barrier breaker.
Larry Doby
Larry Doby's MLB debut was on this day in 1947. Doby was the second black player to break baseball's color barrier and the first black player in the American League.

Finally fulfilled my dream of owning a 1952 Topps card with this Larry Doby gem. Sharing it on Jackie Robinson Day because Doby was the second African American in MLB, following Robinson. Both legends broke barriers, inspiring us toward equality and inclusion. #JackieRobinsonDay #LarryDoby
